This new treatment center will be in addition to the five centers currently operated by the UDC’s Division of Adult Probation and Parole — four in Salt Lake County and one in Weber County.

UCCCC is taking over the former Utah National Parks Council Boy Scout building in Orem.

The center will house up to 82 male parolees. It will offer several types of treatment (including substance abuse) and services (including employment, education and housing assistance) to aid offenders as they transition back into the community.

Approximately 40 employees, including correctional officers and agents, will staff the facility around the clock.

Opportunities for community members to get updates on the new center will be announced in the near future.
