Located at 420 Mill St SW in Mitchellville, IA, ICIW carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. ICIW 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 ICIW is a minimum/medium security prison previously known as the Mitchellville Prison for Women as it is located in the town of Mitchellville, offering both dorm-like and celled housing. Educational and vocational services include basic education, special education, and high school equivalency programs, along with vocational training opportunities facilitated by internal work assignments and courses in partnership with Iowa Workforce Development.
ICIW collaborates with Iowa Prison Industries to provide onsite vocational training. Emphasizing responsibility and accountability, the institution prepares women offenders for successful reentry through programs addressing interpersonal relationships, domestic violence, career exploration, parenting, decision-making skills, and health education. Evidence-based and gender-responsive curriculums are utilized, alongside licensed substance abuse prevention and treatment programs.
ICIW maintains a database of current inmates and their locations within the system. To locate an inmate, begin by using the DOC locator tool, which requires entering the first three letters of the inmate's first and last name, allowing for variations in spelling.
If unable to locate the desired information through free resources, users may opt to use the Arrest Record Search, which requires payment. While this option incurs a small fee, it provides access to the most up-to-date data available.
