Overcrowded Juvenile Prisons Prompt Call for Alternatives
DARLINGTON AP An overcrowding rise hits Department of Youth Services facilities with a 10 percent increase in youths. DYS Commissioner Harry W. Davis Jr. urges $700 000 yearly funding for a wilderness program in the Appalachian Mountains to provide structured, less severe placement than incarceration. He cites $22 000 annual cost per incarcerated juvenile versus lower costs at the youth home. The Darlington County Youth Home near Darlington and Timmonsville has hosted over 900 youths in eight years and is among 15 statewide facilities offering supervised environments for youths who need discipline but not hardened crime exposure.
