Indianapolis Juvenile Correctional Facility
The Indianapolis Juvenile Correctional Facility was a minimum, medium, and maximum state juvenile facility of the Indiana Department of Correction. It was located on Girls School Road, west of Downtown Indianapolis.〔(Indiana Department of Correction )〕 The facility currently houses 185 female inmates ranging in age from twelve years to twenty-one years.〔 The facility was originally established in 1907 as an all-girls school and was known for most of its history as the Indiana Girls School. In 2006, juvenile male offenders were assigned to the facility as well. In late 2007 all male offenders were transferred to other state facilities. Indianapolis Juvenile Correctional Facility reverted to being an all female facility. In 2009 the girls were moved to the Madison Juvenile Correctional Facility, and the former IJCF became the current location of the Indiana Women's Prison.〔"(Indiana Women's Prison )."

==Early history==
In 1869, the Indiana State Legislature established the Indiana Reformatory Institution for Women and Girls stating that “There shall be established as soon as possible after the taking effect of this act, at or near the city of Indianapolis, an institution to be known as the Indiana Reformatory Institution for Women and Girls."〔State of Indiana Dept. of Correction, “Indiana Girls’ School.,” circa 1927, pamphlet available on request from Indiana State Library〕 This was the first prison exclusively for females in the nation. Prior to the act, female juvenile offenders were taken care of by their county jails.〔Beane, James Cecil. “Survey of the Indiana Girls School,” 1927.〕 In 1899, the girls were given separate quarters from the women (but were still on the same grounds), and the institution was renamed the Indiana Industrial School for Girls. However, the girls and the women were still housed under the same roof. Prior to the separation, the girls and the women would do activities together such as prayer services and household work.〔“Reasons for asking for the separation of the women’s prison from the reform school for girls.” 1898.〕 The women were thought to have a negative effect on the young girls’ morals, so in 1907 the girls moved to an entirely different facility. This facility was named The Indiana Girls’ School, and the woman’s facility was renamed The Indiana Women’s Prison. According to correspondents of the time, the Indiana Girls’ School was built on the belief that firmness, fairness, and kindness were the keys to changing the girls’ attitudes. Girls who were “epileptic, insane, feeble-minded, paralytic, pregnant, or had a contagious disease” were not admitted to the facility.〔State of Indiana Dept. of Correction, “Indiana Girls’ School.,” circa 1927, pamphlet available on request from Indiana State Library〕 Instead, these girls were sent back to their homes. The school’s first superintendent was Charlotte Dye. A state law brought any girl who was convicted of activities which included but were not limited to: visiting gambling places, trespassing on railroad property, patronizing liquor saloons, using bad language, or smoking cigarettes to the school.〔Annual Report of the Indiana Girls’ School, 1905〕
