The Nevada Youth Training Center (NYTC) is a residential juvenile correctional facility serving male youth between 12 years old and 20 years old who are committed by the state's district courts for correctional care. Bed space of the facility was reduced from 110 to 60 beds during the 2013 Legislative Session. Bed space of the facility was then increased to 64 beds in the 2017 Legislative Session. The facility is in Elko, Nevada, and operates a junior/senior high school program offering required and elective academic subjects, remedial programs (reading, math, and language), special education, and vocational education. Following the 2015 Legislative Session, youth are also able to participate in interscholastic sports including football, basketball and track and field. Some youth are eligible to participate in college-level courses upon completion of their high school education. Youth also receive counseling conducted individually or in small and large groups, monthly treatment team meetings and substance abuse counseling. Youth who apply themselves to reach their goals in the shortest amount of time possible typically achieve parole release within six to seven months. Statutory Authority: NRS Chapter 63.
