The department's collection officers aid crime victims and the courts by collection of more than $3 million per year in restitution, fines and penalty assessments - along with reimbursements for the cost to operate juvenile institutions and provide probation supervision. The Department also operates the Juvenile Detention Facility and the Juvenile Youth Facility Camp. These facilities were built in 1997 and 1998.
