Chalkville Campus information


Chalkville Campus was a correctional facility for girls of the Alabama Department of Youth Services, in the Chalkville area, in Jefferson County, Alabama.

In 1909 the Protestant Women of Birmingham created a youth corrections program that became the Chalkville campus.[1]

By 2002 100 former students who attended in the period 1993 to 2001 accused the school of abuse, with forty of them joining a lawsuit in federal court.[2] The State of Alabama settled the lawsuit for $12,500,000.[3] Some persons lost their jobs.[4]

By 2012 enrollment was down to 18, and the department planned to retire the Chalkville campus and move the girls elsewhere. In January 2012 a tornado destroyed 11 of the buildings, though no injuries resulted. The facility abruptly closed as a result.[1] The Mount Meigs Campus began housing delinquent girls.[5]
