Facilities Division

The Facilities Division is responsible for the direct supervision of all offenders sentenced to the Georgia Department of Corrections.

The division operates:

• 35 state prisons, housing nearly 49,000 offenders
• 12 residential substance abuse treatment facilities
• 2 integrated treatment facilities
• 13 transitional centers
• 7 probation detention centers

The Division oversees the custody of state offenders by contract in:

• 4 private prisons
• 21 county prisons

There are three Regional Offices within the Facilities Division, which allows for the decentralization of operations. Regionalizing operations returns the agency to a time tested, effective formula for the optimal management of over 60 facilities and 9,700 staff across the state of Georgia.
