CSP-SAC 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.

CSP-Sacramento has expanded its scope beyond the housing of maximum-security offenders to include level I minimum-security inmates as well. This diversification underscores the facility's versatility in accommodating individuals across a spectrum of security classifications. Additionally, CSP-SAC features a standalone administrative segregation unit fortified by a lethal electric fence, exemplifying its commitment to stringent security measures.

CSP-SAC stands as a bastion of public safety, tasked with the secure housing of maximum and high-security offenders, alongside individuals necessitating specialized mental health and medical care. Upholding principles of safety and humanity, CSP-SAC endeavors to provide rehabilitative opportunities to its incarcerated population through a multifaceted approach encompassing educational, vocational, and mental health programming, as well as self-help initiatives. These initiatives, integral to CSP SAC's mission, play a pivotal role in preparing individuals for successful reintegration into society upon their release, thereby contributing to public safety and community well-being.

At its core, CSP-SAC functions primarily as a Level IV institution, boasting twenty-four semi-autonomous 180-designed housing units and a standalone Administrative Segregation Unit, all enveloped by a formidable Lethal Electrified Perimeter Fence. Complementing its high-security infrastructure, the facility houses a Level I Minimum Support Facility (MSF) and provides a comprehensive spectrum of mental health services, ranging from the Correctional Clinical Case Management System to the Enhanced Outpatient Program and Mental Health Crisis Bed.

This accreditation serves as a testament to CSP-SAC's unwavering dedication to upholding rigorous standards of operation and underscores its status as a model correctional facility within the state.

Delving into its historical roots, CSP-Sacramento's origins trace back to its inception in 1986 under the auspices of the Folsom warden, initially operating under the moniker of New Folsom. However, in October 1992, the institution underwent a significant transformation with a name change to CSP-Sacramento, assuming autonomy under its own warden's administration. This pivotal moment marked the institution's evolution into an independent entity, distinct from its Folsom State Prison counterpart while reaffirming its commitment to serving the Sacramento community and beyond.

In essence, California State Prison, Sacramento, remains steadfast in its mission to ensure public safety, promote rehabilitation, and facilitate the successful reintegration of incarcerated individuals into society.
