Attendant Care Program


Purpose - North Dakota’s Attendant Care Program provides funding assistance to local government to operate non-secure “holdover” sites for delinquent juveniles who have been picked up by law enforcement and need short-term supervision on a pre-adjudicatory basis.  It serves as an alternative to secure juvenile detention.  For more information, refer to the North Dakota Attendant Care Guidelines.  

Program Sites - There are currently seven Attendant Care sites are in operation. Two sites are operated by counties, four by private providers on behalf of counties/cities, and one by a tribal agency.

Sites can submit for reimbursement of eligible expenses using the Attenant Care Billing Template.
