Joint Regional Correctional Facility

A Joint Regional Correctional Facility is a detention center that serves multiple jurisdictions, such as counties or municipalities, by housing individuals who are awaiting trial or serving short sentences. These facilities are designed to streamline resources, reduce costs, and improve management of inmates. By sharing infrastructure and staff, the facility can focus on rehabilitation and security while accommodating varying populations from different areas. This collaborative approach helps to alleviate overcrowding in local jails and allows for more efficient use of taxpayer funds.
