Operations
330-643-2544

The duties of Detention Services and facilities security were combined under one Director in January 2003.

Operations coordinates with the Sheriff’s Office to maintain the integrity of the facility during court hours. Also, Juvenile Court employs an in-house Law Enforcement Automated Data System (LEADS), which is used to assist the Judge and Magistrates in their court cases as well as providing background checks on prospective employees, volunteers and vendor employees.

The Detention Center has 100 beds. Operations must assure that the juveniles being held in detention are treated with due process and the environment in which they live complies with Department of Youth Services guidelines. Operations assures that the detainees’ well-being and safety is monitored 24 hours a day and that their educational, religious, dietary and medical needs are met in a timely manner.
