About CHJCF

Cuyahoga Hills Juvenile Correctional Facility (CHJCF) is located in Highland Hills a suburb of Cleveland, OH. The general population consists of male youth between the ages of 12 and 21 years, that are housed in one of eight open-dormitory style living units.

CHJCF works to provide professional, team-oriented juvenile correctional services that serve to meet the vast needs of our youth population, agency, and the community at large.

The Luther E. Ball High School is a fully accredited school located inside the facility that offers regular and GED classes. Athletic fields inside a secure perimeter allow for sports, such as baseball, soccer, basketball, volleyball, and football.


Mail

Mail is received from the post office and distributed to youth after it is examined for contraband. Youth should not write to, or receive mail from adults or youth that are incarcerated in correctional facilities. Any mail received of that nature would be returned to the sender. If the mail is from an incarcerated family member, the social worker will contact the Regional Office to inquire as to whether the youth should receive the mail.
