Juvenile Justice Services

Juvenile Services within the Division of Child and Family Services

Youth are committed to the Division of Child and Family Services by the juvenile court for services.

DCFS operates three state facilities:

• Summit View Youth Center (SVYC)
• Caliente Youth Center (CYC)
• Nevada Youth Training Center (NYTC)

The Division of Child and Family Services is dedicated to family engagement as a critical component to the success of our youth. The handbook below was created to help ensure families have the information they need at every step.

Youth Parole Bureau

Upon successful completion of the programming within the center, youth are released back into the community with supervision and case management services provided by Youth Parole.
Youth committed for mental health treatment are placed directly on parole and receive treatment and case management services based on their identified needs.
