Detention is where they send people for being bad so they can "pay their time" and correctional facilities try to help people go back in the right direction

Detention facilities are imprisonment of someone guilty or suspected of a crime the persons there just to "pay the time for their crime". While Correctional facilities are what their name suggests facilities intent on correcting the behavior or person.
