§ 129790 Correctional Treatment Center Standards

• •The government sets rules for how jails and youth prisons should be built.
• •These rules cover things like space, safety, and how the building works (like plumbing and electricity).
• •Different groups (like jail experts and youth prison leaders) work together to make these rules.

A new jail is being built in a town.

The government will decide how big the cells should be, where the bathrooms go, and how the lights and doors work. They ask jail officers and youth prison leaders for help to make sure it’s safe and fair.
