The U.S. Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) Detention Program operates correctional facilities that serve Native American communities across federally recognized tribal lands. Facilities like Supai Holding Facility, located at P.O Box 69 Peach Springs, AZ, are responsible for the custody, care, and supervision of individuals arrested under tribal and federal jurisdiction. BIA detention centers house both pretrial detainees—those awaiting trial or other court proceedings—and convicted individuals serving sentences under tribal law. Some facilities are managed directly by the BIA Office of Justice Services (OJS), while others operate under self-governance agreements, allowing tribal governments to administer correctional services independently. The goal of the BIA detention system is to ensure the safe and humane treatment of incarcerated individuals while upholding tribal sovereignty and justice.
When an individual is arrested within a tribal jurisdiction, they are typically taken to a BIA detention facility or a tribally operated jail for processing. Upon arrival, detainees undergo an intake procedure that includes fingerprinting, photographing, a medical screening, and a classification assessment to determine housing placement. Depending on the severity of the charges, the detainee may be eligible for release on recognizance (ROR), cash bail, or supervised release, or they may remain in custody until their court hearing. Tribal courts oversee pretrial proceedings, and for individuals facing federal charges, coordination occurs with federal agencies such as the FBI, U.S. Marshals Service, or the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) for potential transfer to a federal facility.
Once booked into a BIA detention facility, detainees are assigned to appropriate housing units based on their classification—which takes into account factors such as security risk, medical needs, and behavioral history. Those convicted under tribal law may serve sentences within the facility for up to three years per offense, with a maximum combined sentence of nine years under the Tribal Law and Order Act (TLOA) of 2010. During incarceration, inmates may have access to medical care, legal representation, religious and cultural services, educational programs, and substance abuse treatment, depending on facility resources. Upon release, individuals may be required to comply with probationary supervision, court-ordered rehabilitation, or reentry programs designed to support reintegration into the community. The BIA detention system remains a vital component of tribal law enforcement, ensuring the administration of justice while prioritizing rehabilitation and public safety within Native American communities.
After processing, inmates are assigned to a housing area based on classification. Compliance with jail rules typically results in a lower classification and more privileges, while rule violations or additional charges lead to a higher classification and fewer privileges. Inmates serving as trustees within the jail undertake various tasks, including cooking, laundry, and commissary management, often receiving minimal compensation or sentence reduction for their services.
The jail is designed with "pods," featuring a large common area with affixed tables and attached seats, and individual cells typically on two levels. Inmates spend certain times in their cells and other times congregating in the pod for activities like playing cards, games, reading, or watching television. Movement outside the pod, such as trips to the commissary, library, or recreation area, occurs under the constant supervision of unarmed correctional officers. The environment in the county jail is considered less stressful than that of a prison because the sentences are much shorter.
The jail offers a phone program for outbound calls only, with inmates unable to receive incoming calls. Accepting collect calls can be expensive, sometimes exceeding $10 per call. Alternatively, setting up an account through a third-party phone company may entail high fees per minute of usage. Click here for discounts on inmate calls, especially if the communication with your inmate is frequent. It's important to remember that all phone calls are recorded, and discussing sensitive legal matters over these lines is discouraged.
Books and magazines ordered for inmates must come directly from the publisher. This policy ensures that the items are new, untampered, and comply with the facility's regulations. The Jail enforces this rule to prevent the introduction of contraband or prohibited materials. By restricting orders to publishers, the facility can better maintain security and control over the content entering the institution. Any books or magazines not received directly from the publisher will be rejected and not delivered to the inmate. You may, however, send letters and selfies to inmates with this easy-to-use app, packages starting at only $8.00.
Inmate workers are chosen based on conduct and cooperation with staff. Participation in the community service program can sometimes reduce sentences. Commissary is available weekly, with orders submitted via kiosk two days in advance. On holidays, there may be increased spending limits. Upon receiving commissary items, inmates must present their ID, check their order, and sign for it in the presence of the commissary employee. Indigent inmates are provided with all essential basic hygiene items including USPS stamps and writing materials.
