Located at 59 Hartford Rd in Brooklyn, CT, Brooklyn CI carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. Brooklyn CI 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 Brooklyn CI, formerly the Windham County Jail, traces its roots back to 1820 when it served as both a town hall and a jail. Over the years, the institution underwent significant transformations to adapt to evolving societal needs and correctional philosophies. By the late 1800s, it had expanded its mission beyond mere incarceration, incorporating initiatives like a prison library and religious services.
In the 1940s through the 1970s, the institution faced the challenges posed by offenders convicted of various crimes, ranging from grand theft to murder. However, as societal attitudes toward rehabilitation evolved, so did the institution's approach. In 1990, a new dormitory-style facility replaced the old jail, marking a shift from a pretrial level 4 to a sentenced level 3 institution.
Today, the Brooklyn Correctional Institution stands as a level 3 medium-security facility dedicated to holding offenders accountable while offering pathways to rehabilitation and successful community reintegration. With a committed staff of 123, the institution upholds professionalism, dignity, and respect, fostering a safe and secure environment balanced with compassion for its inmate population.
Central to its mission are the extensive programming offerings aimed at equipping offenders with the tools they need for a law-abiding return to society. These programs encompass educational services, including GED, English as a Second Language, and special education, as well as vocational programs covering business education and computer skills. Additionally, the institution provides literacy volunteers, sex offender programming, anger management, and substance abuse treatment.
Beyond its walls, the Brooklyn Correctional actively engages with surrounding communities through public service projects and charitable contributions, with a particular focus on combating domestic violence. Offenders participate in outreach efforts, speaking to high school students and at-risk youth about the importance of positive decision-making and the consequences of incarceration.
Through its rich history and comprehensive approach to rehabilitation, the Brooklyn Correctional Institution remains committed to its core values of accountability, education, and community engagement. As it continues to evolve, the institution stands as a beacon of hope, offering offenders the opportunity for redemption and a second chance at a law-abiding life.
