The Idaho Department of Correction (IDOC) operates nine prisons, four community release centers and 20 probation and parole offices in seven districts located throughout the state of Idaho. The agency has its headquarters in Boise.
IDOC employs about 2,000 people under the leadership of Director Josh Tewalt. Most of them are correctional officers and probation and parole officers. They are all certified peace officers and train at the Peace Officer Standards Training Academy in Meridian.
Private prisons
As of 2016, IDOC contracts with one private prison firm, Management and Training Corporation, to run one facility: the Correctional Alternative Placement Program, a 432-bed center focused on treatment programs and inmates with cognitive issues. It opened in the summer of 2010 as Correctional Alternative Placement Program (CAPP). On July 1st 2023, IDOC re-purchased the CAPP facility and renamed it to Mountain View Transformation Center or MVTC.
Idaho entered into its first private prison project in July 2000, opening the Idaho Correctional Center with operator Corrections Corporation of America. The state paid $29 million annually for the mixed-security prison. An increasing number of lawsuits related to violent incidents, chronic understaffing and fraudulent recordkeeping revealed deep operational problems. The Idaho State Police and the FBI launched investigations. IDOC took over the facility in 2014. As part of the long legal aftermath, in July 2015 IDOC itself faced federal court allegations that it had falsified inmate medical records, and was out of compliance with previous court orders.
Idaho has also exported prisoners to private prisons in other states. From roughly 1998 to 2008, Idaho had placed inmates at Prairie Correctional Facility (Appleton, Minnesota), the Newton County Correctional Center (Newton, Texas), Dickens County Correctional Center, (Spur, Texas), Val Verde Correctional Facility (Del Rio, Texas), the Bill Clayton Detention Center (Littlefield, Texas), and the North Fork Correctional Facility (Sayre, Oklahoma). This cycle ended around July 2009.
Once again in July 2012, IDOC exported about 200 prisoners to the Kit Carson Correctional Center in Burlington, Colorado, a contract that ended in mid-2016 and the closure of that prison.
Private partnerships
The department has contracted with JPay, a private firm that provides email and money-transfer services to prisoners. The department receives a commission for these transactions.
