Rivers Correctional Institution is a privately owned prison located in unincorporated Hertford County, North Carolina. It is operated by the GEO Group under contract with the Federal Bureau of Prisons since its construction in 2001. The prison was specifically built on 257 acres of land to house prisoners from the District of Columbia and is situated approximately 1 mile from the town of Winton and about 200 miles from Washington, DC.
Situated on a 257-acre tract in a rural area west of Winton, North Carolina, Rivers Correctional Institution encompasses a 347,155 sq. ft. campus design. It features four housing buildings, indoor and outdoor recreational areas, a central programs building, an administrative building exterior to the perimeter fences, a prison industries building, and four perimeter guard towers. Inmates at CI Rivers are housed in two-person cells, and the healthcare unit is designed to meet the predicted needs of the population. The facility also includes a large, fully equipped kitchen to provide meals for inmates and staff.
The National Capital Revitalization Act of 1997 mandated the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) to house District of Columbia sentenced felons in private contract facilities. In response, the BOP signed a contract with The GEO Group, Inc. (GEO) on March 7, 2000, to provide and operate a low-security adult male facility in Winton, North Carolina.
GEO provides comprehensive correctional services to the BOP, including designing, building, financing, owning, operating, and managing the double-cell, state-of-the-art correctional facility for low-security adult males. Educational programs offered include GED, ESL, and ABE courses, along with vocational training in building construction, commercial driving, and computer technology. Life skills training covers various aspects, such as parenting techniques, residential drug abuse programs, and re-entry preparation. Inmates also have access to law and leisure libraries, religious services, healthcare, food services, and recreational facilities. Additionally, CI Rivers operates the "Wheels for the World" industry program, teaching inmates wheelchair repair skills while donating wheelchairs globally.
Initially receiving inmates transferred from the Lorton Reformatory of the District of Columbia Department of Corrections in 2001, Rivers Correctional Institution primarily houses offenders of the District of Columbia under FBOP custody. These inmates, who committed no federal crimes but violated parole conditions or committed drug offenses, typically serve around two years. Additionally, the prison houses non-U.S. citizens convicted of federal law violations, including approximately 400-500 foreign prisoners as of 2009.

Inmates can add the following individuals to their visiting list:
- Immediate Family: Mother, Father, Step-parent(s), Foster parent(s), Brothers, Sisters, Spouse, Children.
- Relatives: Grandparents, Uncles, Aunts, In-laws, Cousins.
- Other types of approved visitors: Up to 10 friends/associates, Foreign officials, Members of religious groups including clergy, Members of civic groups, Employers (former or prospective), Sponsors, Parole advisors, and Attorneys.
In certain circumstances, such as when an inmate first enters prison or is transferred to a new prison, a visiting list might not exist yet. In such cases, immediate family members who can be verified by the information contained in the inmate's Pre-Sentence Report may be allowed to visit. However, if there is little or no information available about a person, visiting may be denied. It's advisable to call the prison ahead of time to ensure your visit will be permitted.
Regarding the dress code, visitors should wear clothing appropriate for a large gathering of men, women, and young children. Wearing inappropriate clothing, such as provocative or revealing clothes, may result in denial of visitation. Specific clothing items generally not permitted include revealing shorts, halter tops, bathing suits, see-through garments, crop tops, low-cut blouses or dresses, hats or caps, and clothing resembling inmate clothing.
Visiting duration varies, but by law, an inmate gets at least four hours of visiting time per month, which can often be extended by the prison. However, the Warden may restrict the length of visits or the number of visitors at once to avoid overcrowding in the visiting room.
During visits, it's essential to maintain quiet, orderly, and dignified behavior, as the visiting room officer can require individuals to leave if either the visitor or the inmate is not acting appropriately.
Physical contact such as handshakes, hugs, and kisses (in good taste) are usually allowed at the beginning and end of a visit. However, staff may limit contact for security reasons and to maintain order in the visiting area. It's important to note that the Federal Bureau of Prisons does not permit conjugal visits.
