When a child is taken into possession under this chapter, that child may not be held in which facility?

• A. Isolation
• B. Jail
• C. Juvenile Detention Facility
• D. Other Secure Detention Facility

Answer: (B)

When a child is taken into custody under this chapter, they must be detained in a facility designed for youths, not in an adult environment. Adult jails are not appropriate for minors, so housing a child there is not allowed under this framework. The proper placements are facilities specifically for juveniles, such as a Juvenile Detention Facility or another Secure Detention Facility, which are equipped to handle the needs and rights of young offenders. Isolation, while it can be a confinement condition inside a juvenile facility, is not itself a separate detention facility, so it doesn’t fit as the place for custody under this chapter.
