Norco Camp #0 is a minimum-security facility under CDCR supervision, this camp plays a crucial role in supporting government agencies during emergency responses to wildfires, floods, and other natural or man-made disasters. Additionally, camp crews contribute to park maintenance, assist with flood mitigation through sandbagging, and participate in reforestation projects. Participation in the Conservation (Fire) Camp Program is entirely voluntary for incarcerated individuals. Those who choose to volunteer must meet specific eligibility criteria aimed at ensuring public safety. These include avenues for criminal record expungement, creating new pathways for employment, and aiding in their successful reintegration into society.

Norco Conservation Camp #0, a collaboration between CDCR and CAL FIRE, plays a vital role in supporting emergency response efforts and community projects. Established in 1972, the camp is located in the city of Norco, adjacent to the California Rehabilitation Center (CRC) prison fence, where inmates are housed.

Initially established by the Navy in the early 1940s on the site of the Norconian Resort Supreme, the camp transitioned to its current role in 1972. While the camp historically included female participants, it now exclusively houses male inmates from CRC. Despite this unique arrangement, Norco Conservation Camp remains dedicated to its mission of providing incarcerated hand crews for firefighting and emergency response.

In addition to fire crew training, Norco Conservation Camp inmates engage in various conservation and community service projects, guided by CAL FIRE. These projects encompass hazard reduction, fuel break system creation, state park maintenance, and facility upkeep within the Riverside Ranger Unit and beyond.

A notable feature of Norco Conservation Camp is its sign shop, which produces a range of products including uniform name tags, vehicle striping, plaques, and signage for various agencies. Since 1981, the camp has been involved in manufacturing CAL FIRE uniform name tags and other engraved products on a statewide basis, further contributing to its operational efficiency and community engagement. Through its multifaceted initiatives and collaborations, Norco Conservation Camp #0 remains committed to its mission of not only responding to emergencies but also making meaningful contributions to conservation efforts and community projects in the region.

Connect with your Inmate

The camp offers a phone program for outbound calls only, with inmates unable to receive incoming calls. Accepting collect calls can be expensive, sometimes exceeding $10 per call. Alternatively, setting up an account through a third-party phone company may entail high fees per minute of usage. Click here for discounts on inmate calls, especially if the communication with your inmate is frequent. It's important to remember that all phone calls are recorded, and discussing sensitive legal matters over these lines is discouraged.

Books and magazines 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. The Jail enforces 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.

Inmate workers are chosen based on conduct and cooperation with staff. Participation in the community service program can sometimes reduce sentences. Commissary is available weekly, and on holidays, there may be increased spending limits. Upon receiving commissary items, inmates must present their ID, check their order, and sign for it in the presence of the commissary employee. Indigent inmates are provided with all essential basic hygiene items including USPS stamps and writing materials.
