Federal Correctional Institution
A Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) is a prison operated by the U.S. federal government to house individuals convicted of federal crimes. These facilities are designed to secure and rehabilitate inmates through institutional programs, job assignments, and education. FCIs typically hold inmates serving medium- or high-security sentences, depending on the facility. They are part of the federal prison system overseen by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, aiming to confine offenders safely while offering opportunities for personal development and eventual reintegration into society.
