The Edmund L. Thomas Adolescent Center serves as the residential component of the Erie County Office of Children and Youth, specifically designed to provide secure juvenile detention and dependent shelter for court-ordered children. Established in 1973, the center is dedicated to ensuring community protection, accountability, and competency development through a balanced and restorative justice approach.
In addition to its detention facilities, the center features a certified educational program where residents participate in mandatory schooling, and it conducts summer school to help enhance academic performance. Upholding a zero-tolerance policy regarding sexual abuse and harassment, the center is committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for all residents, enforcing compliance with the federal Prison Rape Elimination Act while maintaining rigorous standards for care and oversight.
