The Cook County Jail (CCDOC) - Division 17 - Women's Justice Services is a detention center located at 3026 South California Ave Chicago, IL which is operated locally by the Cook County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Cook County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, Chicago Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.
New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals. You can see all the arrest records for Illinois here.
The Cook County Sheriff’s Women’s Justice Programs were established in 1999 as a direct response to address the unique needs of the increasing number of women entering the Cook County criminal justice system. Women’s Justice currently administers the following three programs:
Women’s Residential Program (WRP): a 160 bed intensive in-patient treatment program offered in a modified therapeutic community setting within the Cook County Jail, which includes the entire pregnant/post-partum female population effective October 2010.
Sheriff’s Female Furlough Program (SFFP): is twofold; an outpatient day-reporting program where women are required to report daily for treatment and case management services, returning home in the evening to care for their families while on electronic monitoring.
There are also non-reporters monitored 24 hours a day and only allowed movement with approval from the Sheriff’s office or Courts.
