The inmates housed at Cibola County Correctional Center (ICE) - CoreCivic located at 2000 Cibola Loop in Milan, NM are placed according to their custody level and are incarcerated by a private company contracted by a government agency and are paid a per diem or monthly rate, either for each inmate in the facility or for each bed available. The facility is well-trained and well-staffed. This doesn't come without some controversy as the "price of incarceration" is big business and critics claim there is a monetary benefit to keeping people locked up. The flip side is this facility undergoes rigorous inspections and are some of the be maintained in the US.

For inmates that show a willingness to learn new things, there are educational and vocational training programs here that will prepare them for a successful reentry when released.

The Cibola County Correctional situated in Milan, New Mexico, began as a county prison before being acquired and expanded by the Corrections Corporation of America (CCA) in 1998. With a capacity of 1129 inmates, it primarily housed federal minimum-security prisoners under contracts with the United States Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) and the United States Marshal Service until October 2016. The facility faced scrutiny due to incidents such as non-violent protests by inmates in 2001 and 2013, and a high proportion of undocumented Mexican nationals among the prisoner population by 2002.

Following the decision to phase out contracted facilities by the BOP in August 2016, the Cibola County Correctional Center closed, leading to the loss of around 300 local jobs. However, it was later reopened under CoreCivic, the rebranded CCA, with a contract from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Despite its reopening, the facility has been subject to ongoing legal challenges and investigations regarding detainee deaths since October 2016.

Concerns about the treatment of transgender migrant detainees have been particularly prominent, with the facility housing facilities dedicated to the ongoing detention of transgender individuals, following the closure of a separate ICE detention pod for gay, bisexual, and transgender detainees in Santa Ana. Tragically, individuals like Roxsana Hernandez Rodriguez, a transgender woman seeking asylum from Honduras, have died in custody, raising questions about the treatment of detainees at the facility. These incidents underscore broader concerns about the mental health challenges faced by transgender detainees and the need for legal representation within the facility.
