The RCCC is a low/medium-security detention center located at 3220 Colerain Ave Cincinnati, OH which is operated locally by the Hamilton Regional Authority and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates have been here for less than five years. RCCC accepts inmates from the Hamilton County Sheriff's arrests and surrounding towns, Cincinnati Police Department, and the US Marshal's Service.

New detainees arrive at the jail regularly, with some being released on bail, placed under pretrial services caseloads, supervised by probation agencies, or released on recognizance with a court appearance agreement. Those who are not released await their court appearances at the jail, receiving accommodations including bedding and meals. You can see all the arrest records for Ohio here.

RCCC, located at the former site of the Community Correctional Institution in Camp Washington, is one of Ohio's eighteen Community Based Correctional Facilities (CBCFs). Designed for non-violent felony offenders, RCCC aims for rehabilitation. With a capacity of 220 residents, including 165 males and 55 females, the average stay is five months, extendable up to six months based on individual treatment needs.

Over 100 full and part-time staff provide 24/7 coverage, offering security and treatment services.

Residents at RCCC receive various services, including chemical dependency treatment, remedial education, and employment assistance.
