The EMCC, situated in northwest Illinois and overlooking the majestic Mississippi River, stands as a testament to the state's commitment to rehabilitation within a minimum security adult male facility. Converted from a mental health institution in 1980, the facility boasts a comprehensive array of buildings spanning over 430,000 square feet, including housing units, administrative quarters, and specialized units catering to healthcare and segregation needs. Enclosed within an 80-acre expanse, with 60 acres secured by fencing, the center offers a secure yet rehabilitative environment for its inhabitants.
