Located at 201 Hwy 468 in Springer, NM, SCC carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. SCC 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 Springer Correctional Center (SCC), formerly known as the New Mexico Boys' School, traces its origins back to October 1, 1909, when it was established as a territorial institution by Governor George Curry. Situated on approximately 4,000 acres of land, the facility's main compound covers about 40 acres and features ten separate living units. Most of the structures were constructed in the mid-1960s, creating an open-campus design conducive to rehabilitation.
With a diverse array of buildings totaling around 22, SCC includes eight dormitories, two level one housing units, and various multipurpose facilities such as maintenance buildings, kitchens, dining areas, and warehouses. Additionally, the complex boasts a gymnasium equipped with a full basketball court and weight room, catering to the physical well-being of its occupants.
Following the closure of the juvenile facility in November 2005 by the Children, Youth & Family Department, the New Mexico Corrections Department identified SCC as a suitable site for housing Level 1 & 2 inmates. Securing funding from the 2006 legislature, NMCD initiated extensive renovations and enhancements to adapt the facility to its new purpose. These upgrades included the construction of a double perimeter fence, installation of lighting and security cameras, and interior remodeling.
After months of construction and preparation, SCC officially opened its doors on January 1, 2007, marking the beginning of its transition into a correctional center for adult inmates. Over the years, SCC has evolved to meet the changing needs of the corrections system, serving as a vital component in the state's efforts to rehabilitate and reintegrate offenders into society.
In October 2016, SCC underwent another significant transformation when it transitioned into a women's facility. This shift reflected the facility's adaptability and responsiveness to evolving demographic trends and operational requirements within the corrections landscape. Today, SCC continues to play a crucial role in the rehabilitation and reintegration of its inmate population, providing a structured environment conducive to personal growth and positive change.
SCC 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.
