Sussex II State Prison, a level 4 facility adjacent to Sussex I State Prison in unincorporated Sussex County, VA, houses inmates with long sentences, typically life or multiple life sentences. With a current capacity of 1,352 inmates, this facility caters to individuals who have become challenging to manage at lower security levels and have consequently been transferred to higher security settings. Inmates seeking transfer to lower security must maintain a clean record for at least two years.
Security measures at Sussex II include multiple security fences, razor ribbon wire perimeter fencing, electronic detection systems, and four armed guard towers. Inmates have access to basic medical, dental, and mental health services, alongside opportunities for educational and technical programs aimed at enhancing their employability post-release.
The Virginia state prison system offers a diverse range of programs and services to support the effective operation of facilities and promote positive growth among inmates. These initiatives occupy idle inmate time constructively, reduce unrest, and address criminal behaviors through meaningful opportunities.
Prison programs are tailored within the Department to cater to the needs of inmates across different custody levels. Long-term inmates or those with behavior problems receive programs promoting positive prison adjustment, while those nearing release participate in initiatives aimed at reducing recidivism.
Upon reception into the prison system, inmates undergo assessments to identify their security and treatment needs, leading to the development of individualized treatment plans. Core programs include inmate work activities, substance abuse treatment, mental health services, and life skills programming.
Substance abuse treatment is particularly emphasized, with intensive programs operating across various prisons statewide. These programs, such as those at Indian Creek Correctional Center and Botetourt Correctional Center, have garnered recognition for their effectiveness in addressing substance abuse and criminal behavior.
In addition to substance abuse programs, educational initiatives provide inmates with essential information on health, social, and legal consequences, while support groups like Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous offer community-led recovery assistance. Life skills programs, tailored for pre-release preparation, equip inmates with practical knowledge for successful community reintegration.
Furthermore, each prison facility offers a range of specialized services to meet specific inmate needs, including behavior management, women offender programs, anger management, geriatric care, and victim support groups. These programs contribute to the overarching goals of rehabilitation and successful reentry into society.
Sussex II 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.
