Located at 307 S 60th Ave W in Newton, IA, NCF carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. NCF 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 Newton Correctional Facility encompasses both a minimum-security and a medium-security facility on a 1,476-acre tract of land, located five miles south of Newton. A key focus at the facility is the Sexual Offender Treatment Program (SOTP), which operates on the premise that sexual deviance is a complex behavioral disorder requiring specialized intervention. Through group therapy and individual counseling, the SOTP aims to help men who have committed sexual offenses address their deviant thoughts, feelings, and behavior, fostering responsibility, recognition, change, and management of inappropriate conduct.
Additionally, the Correctional Release Center, within the facility, prepares offenders from Iowa's correctional institutions for parole, work release, or discharge. Programs at the center emphasize personal accountability and fall into two main categories: release preparation and cognitive behavioral programming. Educational offerings, including Adult Basic Education, HiSET classes, and special education, are available to eligible individuals. Offenders may engage in on-grounds work assignments or participate in community service work programs, either within state agencies or in the private sector. Those involved in community service work are transported to their work sites daily and operate under the supervision of non-correctional state employees.
NCF 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.
