WI DOC - Oshkosh Correctional Institution - Inmate Handbook
Oshkosh Correctional Institution (OSCI) is a medium-security state prison managed by the Wisconsin Department of Corrections, situated on 273 acres, with 96 acres enclosed by a secure razor-fenced perimeter. Housing approximately 2,200 adult male inmates, OSCI accommodates its population across 12 housing units, ranging from open dormitories to multi-occupancy cells. The facility serves individuals serving Wisconsin state sentences, out-of-state sentences, and those temporarily held for community supervision violations.
OSCI prioritizes inmate well-being by offering comprehensive medical, dental, and mental health services. Vocational programs form a significant part of the institution's rehabilitative efforts, encompassing fields such as data entry, culinary services, horticulture, custodial, and building maintenance. Moreover, the facility hosts various specialized programs, including a 36-month sex offender treatment program, domestic violence counseling, victim impact groups, cognitive intervention programs, and self-help groups like Alcoholics and Narcotics Anonymous.
Established in 1977 as per the "Flad Report," construction of OSCI began in 1984, with the facility becoming operational in September 1986. The institution replaced the Winnebago Correctional Farm and has since evolved into a vital component of the state's correctional system. Notably, OSCI's Training Kitchen offers inmates the opportunity to purchase food items from the restaurant menu for their approved visitors during specified visiting hours.
Inmates entering OSCI undergo a thorough reception, orientation, and assessment process, including evaluations by health services, psychological services, and classification. This process informs initial classification decisions regarding custody levels, program assignments, and site placements. Additionally, inmates are provided with information about the myriad of programs available to them during their incarceration, ranging from education and vocational training to recreational and therapeutic activities.
Pre-release planning is a central focus at OSCI, aiming to equip inmates with the necessary tools for successful reintegration into society. This includes personalized release planning, establishing post-release support networks, arranging for housing and treatment, facilitating employment and educational opportunities, and fostering personal responsibility for one's actions. Through these initiatives, OSCI strives to promote positive outcomes for inmates transitioning back into their communities.
OSCI 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.
