Los Angeles County’s Probation Department is facing controversy for defying a state order to close Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall, which the California Board of State and Community Corrections (BSCC) deemed “unsuitable” for housing youth. The BSCC ordered the facility to close after they found critical issues, including staffing shortages and inadequate rehabilitative programming. The larger juvenile justice system in Los Angeles County has long struggled with closure of facilities due to violence, mismanagement, and chronic staffing shortages. However, the county’s Probation Department has announced it will not comply with the order. This defiance has led to backlash from those who argue that continuing to operate the facility violates state law and causes harm to the young people in custody. As tensions rise, the future of Los Padrinos—and the youth it houses—remains uncertain.   Los Padrinos Juvenile Hall highlights a systemic failure in our approach to juvenile justice. While the BSCC points to staffing shortages as the reason for the facility’s dysfunction, this narrow view overlooks the deeper issues that need to be addressed. We must shift our focus to sustainable strategies that reduce the number of incarcerated youths. This begins with a commitment to investing in our communities. By increasing access to mental health services, educational programs, family support initiatives, and opportunities for economic stability, we can address the underlying factors that contribute to juvenile offenses, reducing the need for incarceration in the first place. Simultaneously, we must reassess the cases of those currently detained, exploring alternatives to incarceration such as restorative justice programs. For the youth who remain in detention, it is imperative to find more humane facilities where their developmental and rehabilitative needs can be met in a safe and supportive environment.   At @juvenileinjustice we are committed to advocating for systemic change that prioritizes the well-being and future of our youth over punitive measures. Only by addressing the root causes can we create a justice system that truly serves the best interests of children.

I don’t think anyone realizes how impressive Alligator Alcatraz is. The State of Florida built this 3,000 bed federal prison in eight days. The director tells me it could have been done in 72 hours were it not for some regulatory hold-ups. Now all the state needs is DOJ approval to deputize the National Guard as Deportation judges and this will become the most efficient deportation center in American history. 🇺🇸👊🏼

From the VAULT: we visit the infamous Florida State Prison graveyard, right outside the building where several of the most notorious names in crime took their final breaths. This was filmed in 2023. #abandoned #october #florida

You guys connected with Jack’s story… so here’s part two. After 40+ years inside, Jack has seen everything from the violence of the 80s to where things stand today. But what stands out most isn’t the past. It’s how he chooses to live now. Sometimes the biggest shift isn’t around you but within you. #prisonlifemedia #fourthpurpose #corrections #perspective #growth
