Located at 75 Legend Rd in Lumberton, NC, Lumberton CI carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. Lumberton CI 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.

Lumberton Correctional, housing medium-custody adult male offenders, opened its doors in November 1994, initially accommodating 312 beds. Shortly after its inauguration, three additional dormitories were constructed, bringing the total capacity to 768 inmates. The institution operates within a campus-style layout, featuring seven buildings including six dormitories, a 20-cell segregation unit, an administration building, vocational facilities, and a gatehouse.

Inmates are assigned to Lumberton CI through various avenues, including promotions from higher security prisons, demotions from lower security facilities, or assignments after processing. Secured by multiple razor wire fences equipped with electronic detection systems and an armored patrol, the facility maintains a robust security infrastructure to ensure order and safety.

Incarcerated individuals engage in productive labor, contributing to Department of Transportation road squads and fulfilling maintenance and kitchen duties within the prison premises. Furthermore, vocational training opportunities are provided in collaboration with Robeson County Community College, offering courses in basic education, GED preparation, and specialized skills such as electrical wiring, carpentry, and HVAC repair.

A dental clinic caters to the dental needs of inmates at Lumberton CI and neighboring prisons, ensuring access to essential healthcare services. The institution employs a diverse staff, including correctional officers, food service personnel, medical and dental professionals, maintenance workers, program facilitators, and administrative staff, collectively overseeing the daily operations of the facility.

A security fence equipped with an electronic monitoring system is installed to enhance security measures, facilitating swift responses to escape attempts and unauthorized activities. Over the years, significant investments have been made in expanding and upgrading the facility's infrastructure. A $10.48 million construction project, part of a broader $103 million prison construction initiative, laid the groundwork for the institution's development. Subsequent dormitory additions were funded through legislative provisions in 1993 and 1994, reflecting ongoing efforts to accommodate the evolving needs of the inmate population and maintain operational efficiency.

Visitation Information

Visits to NCDPS offenders are by appointment only. Call the prison where the offender is housed to schedule an appointment. Visitors should call the prison the day before a scheduled visit to confirm the facility's visitation status. Also, video visitation now is available at most but not all prisons, so family and friends may be able to do a virtual visit if they prefer. Call the prison for additional information on video visitation at the facility.
Visitation by family and friends is encouraged and can make a positive difference during an offender's time in prison. Prison staff understand the importance of offenders maintaining contact with their family and friends. However, offenders can not be assigned to specific facilities within the prison system for the convenience of visitation.

For more information regarding prisons and visitation, please read the Handbook for Family and Friends of Offenders.
The increased safety and security measures are implemented to address, and ultimately eliminate, the introduction of contraband into state prisons. Any refusal to comply with all search procedures will result in the denial of entrance into the facility. Cell phones are considered contraband and are prohibited from all prison facilities. Appropriate attire is required.

Ask The Inmate
