women’s correctional facilities

Women’s correctional facilities are secure prisons or detention centers designed specifically for women who have been convicted of crimes or are awaiting trial. These institutions provide a controlled environment focused on security, rehabilitation, and healthcare, addressing women’s unique needs related to health, mental well-being, and family connections. Programs often include education, vocational training, and counseling to help women reintegrate into society upon release. Facilities aim to balance safety with opportunities for personal development, recognizing the distinct experiences and challenges faced by women in the criminal justice system.
