CREC Juvenile Detention Center School Program

In collaboration with the CREC Polaris Center, the Detention Centers Education Program provides educational services to the children placed in Hartford Juvenile Detention Centers.

The JDC Educational Program is especially sensitive to the neglected and/or delinquent youth and children who have experienced some sort of trauma. By aligning professional development sessions that support the education staff with classroom instruction and behavior management, our specialized training enables us to effectively educate this diverse population.

Dedicated and caring education staff members make positive connections with students providing an atmosphere conducive to motivating reluctant learners.
