JHCC, inaugurated in 1978, occupies the grounds of a former World War II-era U.S. Navy firing range in Lexington. Named after Joseph Harp, a pioneering figure who served as warden at the Oklahoma State Reformatory from 1949 to 1969, the institution was renowned for launching the nation's inaugural fully accredited high school education program within a prison setting.

Within the confines of JHCC, a medium-security prison tailored for male inmates, an array of specialized units and programs cater to diverse needs.
