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.
Emanuel Probation Detention, constructed in 1991 and renovated in 2007, stands as a medium-security facility dedicated to providing a structured environment for probationers requiring heightened security or supervision. Located on 32 acres in Emanuel County, this center is among the first detention facilities entirely constructed with offender labor. Since its inception, Emanuel PDC has been committed to its mission of offering a sanctioning option that fosters the successful reintegration of probationers into the community.
The facility boasts a capacity of 369 beds and features six open dormitories equipped with double and triple bunk beds. This layout emphasizes space optimization while maintaining security and supervision standards. The center's housing infrastructure is designed to accommodate probationers in a safe and secure environment conducive to rehabilitation.
Emanuel PDC operates highly structured programs aimed at enhancing the skills and abilities of probationers for successful community reintegration. One of the hallmarks of the center's approach is supervised, unpaid work assignments in surrounding communities. These work details, both inside and outside the facility, offer probationers valuable opportunities to contribute positively to society while instilling discipline and responsibility.
Outside work details undertaken by probationers extend to various counties and municipalities, including Emanuel, Candler, Washington, Tattnall, Toombs, and the City of Swainsboro. Additionally, trustees from the center are deployed to Twin City and Swainsboro for designated tasks. Notably, Emanuel Probation Detention Center manages an 8-acre vegetable garden with three greenhouses, providing both a productive activity for probationers and a valuable resource for the community.
Inside the facility, probationers engage in a range of work details, including sanitation, dormitory maintenance, laundry services, and kitchen duties. These assignments not only contribute to the smooth operation of the center but also serve as opportunities for skill development and vocational training.
In addition to work programs, Emanuel PDC offers a variety of educational and counseling services to address the diverse needs of its population.
