The Indiana Women’s Prison stands as a cornerstone in correctional history, being the oldest and first adult facility for females in the United States. Since its establishment in 1872, it has provided crucial services to incarcerated women. After 136 years at its original Randolph Street location, the prison relocated to its current site on North Girls School Road in 2009. With a capacity exceeding 700, the facility caters to female inmates requiring specialized care.

Notably, the Officer Breann Leath Memorial Maternal-Child Health Unit exemplifies the prison's commitment to family preservation. This unit allows incarcerated mothers to stay with their children while providing education and resources for successful re-entry. Additionally, the facility offers comprehensive resources and treatment for mental health, substance abuse, and domestic violence, alongside numerous educational opportunities.

By prioritizing treatment and rehabilitation for all inmates, the Indiana Women’s Prison aims to equip incarcerated women with the skills and confidence needed for a successful reintegration into their communities.
