The CIC visited the Correctional Treatment Facility (CTF) and the Central Detention Facility (CDF) on February 25 and 26, 2019 respectively, in order to inquire about the frequency of outdoor recreation for inmates. The CIC had previously received reports that units were being denied access to outdoor recreation. We spoke with the Warden, Executive Staff, and inmates regarding the issue. 

The CIC has published a new inspection report on USP Florence ADMAX as well as, the Federal Bureau of Prison's (BOP) response to the CIC inspection report.

Following CIC visit to Hazelton FCC on October 3, the CIC sends a letter addressing some observations and recommendations based on the October 3 visit. The CIC received a response from the BOP in reference to this letter on March 21, 2019. 

The CIC is mandated to inspect and monitor the correctional facilities where DC residents are incarcerated, including DC Department of Corrections facilities in the District and over 100 Federal Bureau of Prisons facilities across the country.

The Corrections Information Council (CIC) and The Public Defender Service’s Community Defender Division: Prisoner & Reentry Legal Services Program (PDS) held the 2018 DC Prisoner and Reentry Symposium: Envisioning a New Jail.
