While incarcerated, reading is often the best use of time. Please note that books and magazines, puzzles, and word searches ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. Prisons and jails enforce this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate. You may, however, send letters and selfies to inmates with this easy-to-use app, packages starting at only $8.00.
ADCRR-Tucson, formerly known as the Arizona Correctional Training Facility, traces its origins back to January 1978 when its first phase opened. By August 1979, the facility was fully operational, initially housing 384 non-violent male first offenders aged 18–25. Additionally, a separate unit was designated to accommodate juvenile males convicted as adults, a practice that continues to this day. The Santa Rita Unit, established in 1982, received its first inmates in July of that year.
The expansion efforts of 1986-87 led to the creation of the 744-bed Cimarron Unit, marking the establishment of the Tucson Complex. Furthermore, 200 beds were added to the Echo Unit during this period.
Work programs play a significant role within ADCRR-Tucson, with approximately 28 inmates participating in off-complex work crews under an Intergovernmental Agreement. These crews engage in various tasks, including call center operations, Arizona Department of Transportation work, wildland fire crews, and maintenance work at Kartchner Caverns State Park. Additionally, inmates within the secure perimeter are allocated a Work Incentive Pay Plan (WIPP) budget, allowing over 1,900 inmates to work in roles ranging from labor to semi-skilled and skilled positions, with some participating in vocational education classes.
Education programs are also a focal point at ASPC-Tucson, with around 30% of inmates participating in some form of education out of the total population of approximately 5,000. Among the programs offered are High School, GED, and Mandatory Literacy, catering to the diverse educational needs of the inmate population. Additionally, the Career and Technical Education (CTE) program provides opportunities in automotive, computers, construction, electrical, and HVAC fields, along with access to distance learning and Closed-Circuit Television (CCTV) programs. These initiatives aim to equip inmates with valuable skills and knowledge to facilitate their successful reintegration into society upon release.
ADCRR-Tucson maintains a database of current inmates and their locations within the system. To locate an inmate, begin by using the DOC locator tool, which requires entering the first three letters of the inmate's first and last name, allowing for variations in spelling.
