Clayton Work Camp, established in 1993, operates as a minimum-security adult male facility situated in Adams County. Functioning as a satellite facility of Western Illinois Correctional Center, located approximately 11 miles away, Clayton Work Camp accommodates inmates in a dormitory setting with an operational capacity of 150 individuals. As an extension of Western Illinois Correctional Center, Clayton Work Camp operates under its oversight and serves as a supplementary component of the broader correctional system.

Despite its minimal security classification, Clayton offers inmates limited programming opportunities compared to larger correctional institutions. While the facility primarily focuses on providing essential services and maintaining security, it does facilitate volunteer services, particularly in the religious domain. Through religious volunteer services, inmates may engage in spiritual activities and receive guidance, fostering personal growth and moral development within the confines of the facility.

In addition to religious services, Clayton WC supports community engagement through its community work crews. These crews enable inmates to contribute positively to society by participating in various community service projects under supervision. By engaging in community work, inmates not only fulfill their obligations to society but also acquire valuable skills and work experience that can enhance their prospects for successful reintegration upon release. Overall, despite its modest programming offerings, Clayton Work Camp plays a vital role in the broader correctional system, providing inmates with opportunities for personal growth, community involvement, and eventual reintegration into society.
