Salem, OR Hillcrest Youth Correctional Facility View
Hillcrest Youth Correctional Facility in Salem, Oregon, was a state youth correctional facility operated by the Oregon Youth Authority, not a Marion County adult jail. It was used for youth and young adults committed through Oregon’s juvenile justice system, rather than adult pretrial detainees or county-sentenced inmates. Its role was to provide secure custody, supervision, education, and treatment for youth under state juvenile corrections authority. For current custody information, families should confirm whether the person is in Oregon Youth Authority custody or in an adult county jail such as the Marion County Jail.

After a booking or transfer, records usually take several hours to process and may not appear immediately.

If the person does not appear, contact the Oregon Youth Authority for youth custody questions or the Marion County Sheriff’s Office for adult jail custody information.
