Keelong Juvenile Justice Centre was closed in 2009. In 2010 it was alleged that the decision led to overcrowding in other juvenile justice centres, and the housing of boys with serious offenders.
In 2013 the Keelong site was converted to a youth centre, run by Father Chris Riley's Youth Off The Streets Programme.
