Access Henley-Young-Patton Juvenile Justice Center Records

Henley-Young-Patton Juvenile Justice Center is Hinds County's secure juvenile detention center in Jackson, Mississippi. It is not part of the adult inmate roster, and a juvenile custody search does not work the same way as an adult jail lookup. Family members, attorneys, and youth-court participants should contact the juvenile center or the proper court channel to confirm placement, visitation, calls, school, medical access, and release procedures. Public mugshot or adult-style roster access should not be expected for juveniles.

Henley-Young-Patton Overview

Hinds County's juvenile justice center page identifies Henley-Young-Patton Juvenile Justice Center as a secure juvenile detention facility. The center provides temporary care for youth requiring secure custody pending court study and disposition or transfer to another jurisdiction or agency. It serves youth whose alleged conduct, court-order violations, probation issues, or placement status require custody that is more restrictive than a community setting.

This facility is different from the adult Raymond, Jackson, and work-facility pages. It serves youth ages 12 to 17 and involves youth court, juvenile detention staff, education, medical care, mental-health services, behavior management, and family visitation rules. It should not be described as an adult county jail, and it should not be connected to a public juvenile mugshot search.

The image below comes from the official Henley-Young-Patton Juvenile Justice Center page, which documents the center's capacity, programs, units, calls, visits, school, medical services, and grievance process.

That official source provides more program detail than the adult jail pages and is the main public reference for juvenile detention operations.

Juvenile Custody Lookup

Henley-Young-Patton youth are not listed through the adult Hinds County Inmate Query. The adult roster is for current adult Hinds County inmates and current adult booking photos. Juvenile custody is handled through the juvenile center, youth court, parents or guardians, attorneys, and authorized agencies. Do not use adult mugshot or roster assumptions for youth held at this facility.

  1. Call Henley-Young-Patton Juvenile Justice Center at 601-985-3000 for authorized placement or visit questions.
  2. Use the youth's legal name, date of birth, parent or guardian information, and court context when allowed.
  3. Contact the youth's attorney, youth court, or case contact for court-status questions.
  4. Do not search public adult mugshot pages for a juvenile booking photo.
  5. For emergency or safety issues, use the proper emergency or court channel rather than a public roster search.

Juvenile records: Public adult jail roster and mugshot access should not be used or promised for youth at Henley-Young-Patton.


Henley-Young-Patton Contact

The juvenile center publishes a physical address, phone, fax, executive director, and office hours. Calls should be made during office hours when possible unless an urgent safety or legal need requires another channel. Because youth custody involves privacy, family status, and court rules, staff may need to confirm the caller's role before discussing placement, calls, visitation, school, medical, or release matters.

Henley-Young-Patton Visits

The juvenile center publishes specific visitation windows. These are different from adult detention vendor visits. A visitor should confirm approval, identification, relationship rules, arrival time, and any property limits before appearing at the center. Juvenile visits are tied to the youth's placement, safety, court status, behavior program, and facility operations, so a published window does not guarantee a particular visit will occur.

Sunday6:00 p.m.-7:30 p.m.Juvenile visitation

Attorney and youth-court access should be handled through the juvenile center, the youth's attorney, and court procedure. Adult detention video vendors should not be assumed to control juvenile visitation.


Juvenile Phone Schedule

Henley-Young-Patton publishes phone call hours by living unit. These windows are narrow and unit-specific, so callers should know the youth's assigned unit before expecting a call. Phone access can also depend on behavior management, safety concerns, school programming, and court or facility restrictions.

School and Programs

The juvenile center's official program detail is extensive. Youth attend an onsite Jackson Public School program Monday through Friday. New admits are placed in an orientation process and behavior management points system. Staff training includes Basic Juvenile Detention Officer Course certification through the Mississippi Department of Public Safety Board on Jail Officer Standards and Training, with annual training for detention officers.

The center also describes a volunteer program, donations program, and a special garden project. The garden is described as 25 feet by 25 feet and is used for therapeutic and educational benefit, with crops such as squash, corn, cucumbers, and berries. These details show that Henley-Young-Patton is a secure custody setting with schooling and programming, not simply a holding cell or adult jail annex.

Short-term locked custody for youth when a less restrictive placement is not enough.
Disposition
The youth-court outcome or placement decision after the court studies the case.
Behavior points
A facility system used to track conduct, orientation, and privileges.

Medical and Grievance

Henley-Young-Patton publishes medical and mental-health resources that were not located in comparable detail for the adult jail pages. The center identifies two registered nurses, one LPN, a nurse practitioner, a mental-health specialist, two qualified mental-health professionals, and three case managers. It also describes mental-health assessment on admission, Hinds Behavioral Health Services involvement, and locked sick-call boxes for confidential medical requests.

The grievance process is also specific. Grievance forms go into a locked KITE box, are removed within 24 hours, and are investigated within 24 hours. Appeals can go to the Operations Manager, with a meeting within 48 hours and a final decision. These procedures are facility-specific and should not be copied onto adult jail pages without an adult source.

Juvenile Records Limits

Juvenile custody records are not handled like adult jail records. The adult Hinds County roster may show current adult booking information and photos, but Henley-Young-Patton youth should be routed through authorized family, court, counsel, and center contacts. Public pages should avoid language that suggests a juvenile mugshot gallery, public juvenile inmate list, or adult-style jail roster lookup.

If a parent, guardian, attorney, or authorized party needs records, the request should be made through the youth court or juvenile center process that applies to the case. If an adult Hinds County record is needed for a different person, the county roster, public-records request form, and adult detention contacts are separate channels. Keeping these systems separate protects the distinction between adult public jail records and juvenile privacy rules.

Note: Confirm youth placement, visit approval, and call rules directly with Henley-Young-Patton before travel or disclosure.
