Located at 541 Wayne Cotton Morgan Dr in Wartburg, TN, MCCX carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. MCCX 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.
The MCCX operates as a maximum-security facility, accommodating up to 2,128 male inmates across custody levels ranging from minimum to maximum security. As one of Morgan County's largest employers, MCCX boasts a workforce of approximately 800 staff members. Notably, in 2009, the facility underwent a significant expansion, leading to the closure of the Brushy Mountain State Penitentiary. Situated on 65 acres in east Tennessee, MCCX encompasses roughly 500,000 square feet of operational space.
In line with its commitment to inmate rehabilitation, MCCX offers a comprehensive array of evidence-based programs. Academic offerings include Adult Basic Education (ABE), High School Equivalency (HiSET) exam preparation courses, and literacy classes. Vocational training opportunities encompass Career Exploration, Welding, Career Management for Success, and Core HVAC and Refrigeration, among others. To address behavioral health needs, the facility provides psychotherapy, cognitive behavior intervention programs, substance use therapy, and workforce development initiatives.
Through collaborative efforts with the community, MCCX extends educational and vocational opportunities to its inmate population. Partnerships with institutions like Roane State Community College and Carson Newman University facilitate associate and bachelor's degree programs. Additionally, Tennessee College of Applied Technology (TCAT) offers certifications in Computer Information Technologies, Building Construction Trades, Welding, Culinary Arts, and Commercial Driver’s License (CDL).
Inmates not enrolled in academic or vocational pursuits contribute to support service roles within the prison, including landscaping, janitorial services, and food provision. Moreover, a portion of the population engages in community service work, providing valuable labor to local government and non-profit organizations. These initiatives not only enhance institutional operations but also foster skill development and community engagement among inmates.
MCCX 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.
