Located at PO Box 2087 in Goldsboro, NC, Neuse CI carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. Neuse CI offers diverse educational and vocational programs aimed at equipping offenders for successful reintegration into society and reducing recidivism. Through these initiatives, inmates gain skills and confidence, fostering personal growth and resilience.
Neuse Correctional Institution, a 788-bed medium security prison located in Goldsboro, began housing inmates on August 27, 1994. It replaced the Triangle Correctional Center in Raleigh as the primary processing center for adult male misdemeanants in eastern North Carolina. In 2018, a 3A/B Medical Facility was added to the institution.
Originally funded in July 1991 as part of a $103 million prison construction program, Neuse CI's construction project included 500 beds for $10.6 million. Another 100-bed dormitory was later added in July 1993 as part of an $87.5 million prison construction program. Approximately 240 beds are designated for inmates assigned to support the prison's daily operations.
The layout of Neuse CI resembles a campus, featuring 10 buildings enclosed within a perimeter fence. It comprises two large housing units and four separate housing units. Additionally, there's a 40-bed single cell restrictive housing building for misdemeanor safe keepers, those with pending felony charges, or inmates in disciplinary status.
The institution offers various programs aimed at inmate rehabilitation and enrichment, including:
- Incentive Wage Positions
- GED Class
- Computer Class/Employment Readiness (Full & part-time)
- Service Club
- Substance Abuse Programs such as Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous
- Transition Program
- Self Help/Life Enrichment
- Thinking for a Change (CBI)
- F.A.T.H.E.R
- Prison Fellowship
- Yoke Fellow
- Formal Worship
- Bible Studies
Neuse CI maintains a database of current inmates and their locations within the system. To locate an inmate, begin by using the DOC locator tool, which requires entering the first three letters of the inmate's first and last name, allowing for variations in spelling.
If unable to locate the desired information through free resources, users may opt to use the Arrest Record Search, which requires payment. While this option incurs a small fee, it provides access to the most up-to-date data available.
Visits to NCDPS offenders are by appointment only. Call the prison where the offender is housed to schedule an appointment. Visitors should call the prison the day before a scheduled visit to confirm the facility's visitation status. Also, video visitation now is available at most but not all prisons, so family and friends may be able to do a virtual visit if they prefer. Call the prison for additional information on video visitation at the facility.
Visitation by family and friends is encouraged and can make a positive difference during an offender's time in prison. Prison staff understand the importance of offenders maintaining contact with their family and friends. However, offenders can not be assigned to specific facilities within the prison system for the convenience of visitation.
For more information regarding prisons and visitation, please read the Handbook for Family and Friends of Offenders.
The increased safety and security measures are implemented to address, and ultimately eliminate, the introduction of contraband into state prisons. Any refusal to comply with all search procedures will result in the denial of entrance into the facility. Cell phones are considered contraband and are prohibited from all prison facilities. Appropriate attire is required.
