Calif. to Convert Juvenile Facility to House Adults
CHINO, Calif. — Corrections officials will house adult inmates at the Heman G. Stark Youth Correctional Facility as part of a $110 million plan to convert the state’s largest juvenile detention facility, which is slated for closure next year.
The plan will create more than 1,800 beds for adult inmates, including almost 900 mental health treatment beds, according to a long-range plan recently released by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
