Juvenile Detention Home
Council Bluffs, Kane Twp.
Census
of the Juvenile
Detention Home, Pierce Street, Council Bluffs. Enumerated 8 January
1920.
This was one of several
homes in the city for "wayward" children.
Not all children were
"juvenile offenders," however, as many were
sent to such a home if their
parents couldn't care for or feed them
or the children were not
attending school or were orphaned.
