Located at 701 Scofield Ave in Wasco, CA, WSP carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. WSP 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.
WSP is a 1,000-bed medium custody state facility operated by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). It serves a critical role as a reception center, intake facility, and diagnostic center for incoming inmates, supporting the broader 4,580-bed reception center on-site.
During the intake process, inmates undergo comprehensive evaluations, including mental, physical, and criminal history assessments. These evaluations inform the determination of security requirements and identify any necessary programs or interventions for individual inmates. Depending on various factors, such as the length of the reception process and program needs, inmates may spend anywhere from a week to 90 days at Wasco before being assigned to a permanent facility.
Wasco State Prison offers a range of programs and services aimed at inmate rehabilitation and preparation for successful reintegration into society. These include educational programs such as Adult Basic Education, GED preparation, vocational training in areas like electronics and office services, and access to libraries and physical education/recreation facilities. Additionally, Wasco provides substance use disorder treatment, voluntary education opportunities, and specialized programs like AA/NA, Parenting Education, and Anger Management.
The institution also operates a Fire Department staffed by inmate firefighters and offers youth diversion programs, religious services, and family reunification support through a Family Liaison Service Specialist. Through partnerships with community-based organizations, Wasco State Prison strives to address the holistic needs of inmates and promote positive outcomes both during and after incarceration.
