About DC Central Detention Facility – Washington, District of Columbia
DC Central Detention Facility in Washington, D.C., is also known as the DC Jail. They have been in operation since 1976. They primarily house male residents who are awaiting trial or serving sentences for misdemeanor offenses. In 2002, the United States District Court lifted the population capacity limit imposed in a previous court ruling. In 2007, the facility’s capacity was set at 2,164 inmates, in compliance with the Jail Improvement Act of 2003.
Their female inmates are housed at the Correctional Treatment Facility (CTF). Their convicted felons are transferred to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. This transfer happens due to the National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government Improvement Act of 1997.
The CTF was established in 1992 as a medium security facility. The facility consists of five interconnected multi-story buildings on a 10.2-acre site. Each building houses different areas for administration, housing and programs.
The facility is designed to provide a secure environment with windows in each room. There’s access to television rooms, multi-purpose rooms and recreation yards. Their housing units have a maximum capacity of 96 beds. They range from 16 to 48 cells.
The community corrections facility program includes the Fairview Halfway House. This halfway house is for women and is privately operated. Fairview provides an alternative to incarceration for pretrial offenders and individuals convicted of misdemeanors.
Women can receive case management, behavioral health counseling and GED preparation. Job readiness and substance abuse interventions will also be available.
I like that you’ll also obtain vital record replacements and your voter registration. Their staff will help you with employment assistance and financial literacy. Among the services you receive is education on HIV/AIDS.
