The Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) is part of the U.S. Department of Justice responsible for managing and operating federal prisons and detention facilities. Its main tasks include ensuring the safety and security of inmates, staff, and the public while providing rehabilitation programs aimed at reducing recidivism.
