The Federal Correctional Institution (FCI Greenville) serves as a medium-security federal prison for about 1,050 male inmates in Illinois, complemented by an adjacent satellite prison camp catering to minimum-security female offenders. Under the jurisdiction of the FBOP, this facility stands as a bastion of correctional oversight and rehabilitation efforts.

Strategically situated approximately 43 miles east of St. Louis, Missouri, and 63 miles from Springfield, IL, FCI Greenville has been a crucial component of the federal corrections system since its inception in 1994. The satellite camp, which transitioned into a women's facility in 2000, housing about 250 offenders, addresses the pressing need for additional space to accommodate female inmates across the north-central United States. Women in prison are often the primary or sole caregivers of children before incarceration. For offenders who will give birth during their incarceration, there are two programs offered to assist these mothers before, during, and after childbirth; these include Mothers and Infants Together (MINT) and the Residential Parenting Program (RPP). The Program Statement, Female Offender Manual, is the agency's primary policy addressing the management of incarcerated women. The agency also issued an Operations Memorandum requiring all female sites to provide five types of feminine hygiene products to inmates free-of-charge.

Noteworthy individuals who have passed through FCI Greenville's gates include former LAPD officer David Mack, Animal Liberation Front members Walter Bond and Derrick Shareef, each serving sentences reflective of their respective crimes. These individuals represent the diverse spectrum of offenders housed within the facility, underlining the importance of its role in maintaining public safety and administering justice.

The housing accommodations within FCI Greenville are tailored to meet the varying security needs of its inmate population, ranging from one-person cells to multi-person dormitories. Health services are readily available, encompassing medical and dental care, emergency treatments, and preventive measures aimed at safeguarding inmates' well-being.

Psychology services play a pivotal role in addressing mental health and substance abuse issues among inmates, offering counseling, psycho-educational classes, and crisis intervention when needed. The Resolve Program and Trauma in Life Workshop cater specifically to female inmates, providing vital support to those with histories of abuse and trauma.

While FCI Greenville does not house a Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP) which is a special situation for inmates who qualify and complete the 9-month course will get one full year off their sentence. The satellite camp DOES offer RDAP. Both facilities house Drug Abuse Education Programs. as well as drug abuse education courses and the Non-Residential Drug Abuse Treatment Program (NR-DAP). Educational opportunities abound within the facility, including GED and ESL programs, adult continuing education, parenting classes, and vocational training in fields such as Microsoft Office and horticulture.

Apprenticeship programs further enhance inmates' skill sets, offering training in various trades ranging from electrician to animal trainer. Library services provide inmates with access to a wealth of reading materials, supporting both leisure and academic pursuits.

UNICOR facilities at FCI Greenville engage inmates in productive work, producing clothing and textiles that contribute to the facility's self-sustainability. Commissary services allow inmates to purchase essential items within prescribed spending limits, fostering a sense of autonomy and responsibility.

Recreation services play a vital role in promoting physical fitness and leisure activities, offering a wide range of indoor and outdoor programs, including team sports, arts and crafts, and wellness classes. Structured leagues and fitness equipment ensure inmates have ample opportunities to engage in healthy and constructive activities.In summary, FCI Greenville stands as a beacon of correctional excellence, providing comprehensive services and programs aimed at facilitating inmates' rehabilitation and successful reintegration into society.
