Located at 610 SC-9 in Bennettsville, SC, Evans CI carefully assigns inmates based on their custody level, considering factors like criminal history. Evans 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.
Evans Correctional Institution, inaugurated in 1989, operates as a medium-security facility for male inmates. Educational opportunities are provided through the Palmetto Unified School District/Evans CI Adult Basic Education program, offering a range of courses including WIN testing for SC Work Ready Credentials, GED preparation, and TABE testing. Routine medical and dental care, along with a hospice program, ensure inmates receive essential healthcare services round the clock.
Vocational training programs at Evans CI include barbering and on-the-job certificate programs in various fields such as religious services, education, food services, janitorial services, maintenance, and landscaping. Inmates also engage in electronic component assembly through a private sector industry within the facility.
A diverse array of programs is available to inmates, including multi-faith religious services, the Jumpstart Reentry Program, volunteer services, conflict resolution and anger management classes, recreational services, and medicated assisted treatment (MAT). Offenders can pursue post-secondary opportunities through Northeastern Technical College (NETC) and the 2nd Chance Pell Grant, offering associate degree programs in Applied Business Administration or Welding, as well as certifications in ARC Welding, Flux Core Welding, Machine Tool, and Workforce Science.
Community involvement is facilitated through inmate labor crews assigned to the Department of Parks, Recreation, and Tourism, as well as the "Operation Behind Bars" program, providing at-risk youth and adults with insights into inmates' experiences and the consequences of criminal behavior.
Evans CI also serves as a video conferencing site for parole hearings in collaboration with the SC Department of Probation, Parole, and Pardon Services, enhancing efficiency in the parole process. Through these comprehensive services and programs, Evans CI aims to promote rehabilitation, skill development, and successful reintegration into society for its inmate population.
Evans CI 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.
