The department of Community Corrections and Rehabilitation (DOCCR) operates the Juvenile Detention Center (JDC) in downtown Minneapolis. There are three living mods on each floor and every living mod has a day room where staff plate and prep all three of the youth’s meals. The day rooms will be remodeled to include detention grade materials, appliance closet, and ligature resistance drinking fountains and sinks. The offices will be upgraded to have ergonomic workstations, wall mounted monitors to display information for staff, and upgraded shelving and cabinets to store materials. The kitchen that serves the entire youth population in the facility will also be reconfigured to support the food service staff, providing additional countertop space to prep meals for youth and additional storage spaces for appliances, utensils, and dry food.
