Birchwood programs are designed to meet the needs of 12 to 18-year old male juveniles committed for sex offenses or other serious and violent offenses, preparing them to reenter their home communities when the Juvenile Parole Board releases them. Birchwood is also home to Birchwood Middle School, Birchwood High School, and the Santee Special Management Unit.

Programs include: The Behavioral Level System; The Sex Offender Treatment Program; The Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps; and a more restrictive Special Management Unit for male juveniles who require temporary separation from the main population. Birchwood opened in 1975.
