Second follow-up inspection 'Sint Maarten
Juvenile Justice Facility: the Miss Lalie Center'

St. MaartenMay 2025Report
Filed under: Detention Youth
In this second review inspection the Council expresses its deeply concern about the current rehabilitation (care and treatment) of juvenile males, which no longer appears to completely be a priority due to the changes and current situation at the Miss Lalie Centre (MLC). The lack of available resources leads to several serious bottlenecks in critical areas such as education, daily activities, maintenance and safety. The Council concludes that the primary objective of the MLC is being undermined by the current situation. As in 2020, the social interests and rights of juveniles in the MLC are still at stake as a result of the current state of affairs.
