OPSEU says 16-bed detention centre for young male offenders will be replaced with a 50-bed institution for adult women
The Ontario Public Service Employees Union says the closure of the Cecil Facer Youth Centre in Sudbury will pave the way for a detention centre for adult women to be built on the same property.
"This is yet another short-sighted closure of a facility for youth who need specialized help in their own communities," said Peter Harding, OPSEU/SEFPO co-chair of the Youth Justice Ministry Employee Relations Committee and a Youth Services Officer. "It's not too late to reverse this bad decision." "Now our members have to decide whether to relocate hours away to keep working with youth, or to change careers and work with adults," said Harding in the news release. "It's an agonizing decision, and so unnecessary. You don't have to move young people in custody or the staff who work with them hours away from their communities."
