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.

The HCF is made up of two separate facilities: a special needs facility and a medium security facility. The special needs facility opened in 1962, as the City and County of Honolulu’s Halawa Jail, and transferred to the State of Hawaii in 1977. The special needs facility houses maximum and closed custody inmates, inmates with severe/chronic mental illness who cannot be placed in the general population and inmates who require protective custody.

The medium security facility is the newest and largest prison facility in the State of Hawaii located in Aiea. The medium security facility houses adult male inmates. To mitigate overcrowding, there are about 1,400 male inmates from HCF who are housed in one out-of-state contracted facility in Arizona.

The special needs facility houses maximum security and closed custody inmates, as well as inmates who suffer from severe mental illness that causes the department to separate them from the general population. Inmates at Halawa Correctional Facility can receive substance abuse treatment, education and vocational classes, and treatment for sex offenders.

Among the programs offered at HCF are a broad range of education classes, substance abuse treatment and sex offender treatment services. In-facility work line positions, as well as work opportunities through Correctional Industries, are available.
