no idea, perhaps a police expression?

работник исправительного учреждения/тюрьмы, тюремный надзиратель
Explanation:
Работа с несовершеннолетними - это лишь частный случай. А вообще-то наиболее точным соответствием в русском языке будет тюремный надзиратель. Очень подробно с обязанностями correction officer можно ознакомиться здесь (даже есть картинки):

Sure


Explanation:
In Russian it can be инспектор по делам несовершеннолетних in case he or she deals with juvenile delinquency. Or it may mean an officer working in correction institution - I'm at a loss for a proper term; probably охранник (a guard) might do in certain cases, but not always.
Good luck!
