WCC is a state prison for men within the Louisiana Department of Corrections, situated approximately 13 miles southeast of Winnfield in unincorporated Winn Parish nestled within the Kisatchie National Forest. Established in 1990 and subsequently expanded in 1992, WCC holds the distinction of being the first privately managed medium-security prison in the United States. In addition to its role as a state prison, WCC also serves as a contract facility for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), accommodating detainees for short periods pending the resolution of their cases. For inquiries regarding detainees housed at the facility, individuals may contact (318) 628-3971 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., providing the necessary biographical information for the detainee in question. Use the ICE Detainee Locator to find an individual you think might be held here.

All individuals with an inmate incarcerated in this facility are encouraged to review the LA Informational Handbook for Friends and Families, a comprehensive 48-page guide covering various aspects of inmate incarceration. This handbook provides valuable information ranging from what occurs during an individual's initial entry to contact details for communication, support, and visitation with an inmate. It serves as a vital resource to ensure individuals understand procedures and available support services during their loved one's incarceration.

Detainees at WCC cannot receive incoming calls. However, individuals seeking to relay urgent messages may do so by contacting (318) 628-2354, furnishing the full name and alien registration number of the detainee, as well as their own name and contact number for a prompt response.
