On Thursday, October 9, 2003, I was honored to have visited the Maxey Training School. This is the most secure facility for adjudicated male delinquents in Michigan. It houses more than 500 young men in five centers (2 maximum-security and 3 medium security centers). Each center has several wings housing about 20 youths each. The Maxey youth ages 12-20 have been convicted of felony crimes. The youth are often the most serious juvenile offenders. This facility consist of medical and dental care units; dining rooms; classrooms; living quarters; a gymnasium; a pool; a library; a game room; a computer room (with limited internet access) and a barbershop. Each individual receives services such as: individual group treatment, psychological services, substance abuse, psychiatric services, and recreational, vocational and special education.
