Twin Oaks Juvenile Development, Inc. opened Apalachicola Forest Youth Camp (AFYC) January 14, 2002. This program is a 48-bed secure Competency Restoration Residential Commitment Program under contract with The Florida Department of Children and Families. The population consists of 40 boys and 8 girls. AFYC provides youth with competency training in a secure residential environment so that clients may become knowledgeable about the delinquency process and their legal situation to ensure appropriate due process and dignity in the legal system. AFYC provides intensive competency restoration services to juveniles charged with felonious delinquent acts and adjudicated by a judge as incompetent to proceed. The program strives to quickly determine which youth may be restored to competency and assist them in reaching this goal as soon as possible.
