Established during the 1980s, the work camp was designed for juvenile detainees from remote Aboriginal communities. The focus of the camp was on reparation through work for the Parks and Wildlife Commission of the Northern Territory, other government agencies and service clubs.[1] The camp has capacity for 20 male detainees and offers case management in support of offender rehabilitation.[2] As at 2005, the facility was not in operation.[3]
