The Office of State Inspector General (OIG) conducted an investigation of Ware Youth Center (Ware) in Red River Parish at the request of the Office of the Governor. This request followed the publication of a news article alleging “repeated abuses, overlooked complaints and a surge in suicide attempts” at Ware.
The primary focus of OIG’s investigation was to determine whether Ware is presently a safe and secure environment to house juveniles who have entered Louisiana’s juvenile justice system.
