The Privatization of Juvenile Corrections Facilities
A number of corporations, such as the Corrections Corporation of America
(CCA) and Wackenhut, involved in the privatization of adult jails and
prisons have begun to operate private for-profit secure juvenile
correctional facilities all over the country.
The "Fact Sheet" highlights the trends in the privatization of juvenile
correctional facilities. The "Resources" list provides contact

correctional facilities and national and local organizations actively
involved in advocacy efforts to halt privatization.
