The inmates housed at Mt Olive Correctional located at 1 Mountainside Way in Mt. Olive, WV are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the past criminal history and the length of their sentence). There are ample educational and vocational training programs for all inmates, especially ones that show a willingness to learn new things that will prepare them for a better life when they are released. The mission is to promote and prepare the offender to leave in better shape than when they arrived, giving them the best chance to never come back and thus lower the state's recidivism rate.
Mount Olive Correctional Complex (MOCC) is a maximum-security prison houses about 1,050 adult male inmates and is the only prison in the state that houses maximum-security males. Inmates at this facility are considered to be high risk, violent, predatory type offenders.
Built as a replacement for the Civil War-era West Virginia Penitentiary at Moundsville, MOCC is the state's only maximum-security correctional facility and has a current capacity of 1,030 inmates. MOCC houses the most violent, high-risk, dangerous and disruptive inmates in the state and has the most diverse inmate population in the state; consisting of the general population, punitive segregation, administrative segregation, intake, special management, mental health, acute medical, and work camp inmates.
The facility is encompassed by a secure perimeter fence approximately one mile long. Of the 120 acre site, approximately 80 acres are inside the secure perimeter. Extensive use is made of both electronic and manual security controls. MOCC operates as a small town, having its own post office and ZIP code, power plant, electrical sub-station, fuel depot, water supply, central warehouse, maintenance garage, hospital and medical clinic, gymnasium, chapel, library, classrooms, courtroom, foodservice and laundry facilities.
Professionals through contractual agreements provide medical, dental, mental health and food services. The West Virginia Department of Education provides many educational and vocational programs for the inmate population such as ABE/GED, Transition Skills, Business Education, Vocational Agriculture, Welding and Culinary Arts. An Apprenticeship Program in Food Service is also available. Limited college courses for Associate’s Degrees are also available through BridgeValley Community & Technical College.
In partnership with Catalyst Ministries, Appalachian Bible College operates an on-site extension campus at MOCC which focuses on moral rehabilitation and offers a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Bible & Theology and allows inmates to be ordained as ministers. This program is unique to all but two prisons in the United States. Additional information regarding this program can be found at catalystministries.com/bible-colleges.php
Selected inmates at MOCC can participate in a paws4prisons™ program which teaches inmates to train various types of assistance dogs for and in support of the paws4people™ foundation. The program inmates first learn how to train “shelter-rescue dogs” and then progress to training highly-trained assistance dogs. Additional information regarding this program can be found at paws4people.org/our-programs/paws4prisons/
West Virginia Correctional Industries operates an engraving shop, sign shop, welding/metal shop and soap/laundry/janitorial supply factory at MOCC. Road signs for the West Virginia Division of Highways, campsite products for West Virginia State Parks & Forests and license plates for the West Virginia Division of Motor Vehicles are also manufactured by Correctional Industries at MOCC. Information regarding the full line of Correctional Industries products can be found at wvcorrectionalindustries.com
In July 2007, MOCC opened a 48-bed minimum-security Inmate Work Camp outside of the secure perimeter for inmates holding an appropriate security classification. These inmates are provided to the West Virginia Division of Highways for various labor projects. MOCC also provides these inmates for labor and community service to various agencies/charitable organizations throughout the local area.
In September 2007, MOCC underwent an intensive audit by the American Correctional Association (ACA). Auditors spent three (3) days at MOCC examining policies, procedures and interacting with staff and inmates. MOCC was found to be in compliance with required national standards and was granted accreditation. Through additional audits conducted every three (3) years, MOCC has since maintained its ACA accreditation status. MOCC has also achieved and maintains national accreditation through the Correctional Education Association and the National Commission on Correctional Health Care.
Develop and empower professional correctional staff to manage high-risk inmates and to function as effective leaders and team members.
Alcohol and Drug Education, Treatment, and Relapse Prevention
ALADRUE is the agency’s three-tiered non-residential substance abuse program for offenders in various stages of drug/alcohol abuse and addiction. ALADRUE is available in all facilities across the state, and consists of three phases: Phase I- Psychoeducation; Phase II- Recovery; and Phase III- Relapse Prevention.
ALADRUE is one of the longest running programs within the West Virginia Division of Corrections. ALADRUE curriculum was developed to address the needs of incarcerated offenders who have used, abused, or who are addicted to drugs and/or alcohol. The premise of this program is to teach the participants the components of physical effects of drugs and alcohol on the body, disease of addiction and effective recovery programming.
ALADRUE is a three-tiered program that begins with Phase One: Pscyhoeducation, where offenders learn the types of substances abused, work to identify the negative effects of alcohol/drugs on their lives and bodies, and gain understanding in the use, misuse, abuse, and addiction of drugs/alcohol.
Phase One programming is followed by ALADRUE Phase Two: Recovery, which is rooted in the 12-step Model. During this phase, offenders learn the characteristics of the 12-step peer recovery model, the value of peer support to their recovery program, and begin work to obtain sponsorship within the community.
Phase Two programming is followed by ALADRUE Phase Three: Relapse Prevention, wherein cognitive-behavioral tools are utilized to assist the offender in making healthy lifestyle choices, using appropriate and effective coping strategies for relationship changes they will encounter while sober, and in appropriately dealing with emotions and feelings to avoid relapse triggers. It is in this phase that offenders develop an individual relapse prevention plan for long-term sobriety in the community.
Long-term Residential Substance Abuse Treatment (RSAT) Units operate within five Division of Corrections’ facilities providing treatment beds for chronic alcoholics and addicts within prisons.
The available treatment beds are available throughout the system, in all levels of security for both men and women. The primary modality of treatment within these units is therapeutic community, wherein offenders are exposed to values and principles consistent with those found in the larger society rather than within the prison subculture. At the same time they are placed in intensive treatment programs to overcome their addictions.
West Virginia’s Therapeutic Community program model is based on correctional programs operating nationally that have achieved success in producing safer, more secure living units and lower recidivism rates.
The agency also operates one community-based center that serves as an aftercare unit for offenders completing the Therapeutic Community. This center is designed to provide a safe transition for the offender from prison to the community, with peer support and follow-up addiction services to the population as they gradually transition back into society.
Anger Management
Anger Management is a cognitive-behavioral program designed and developed by the Division of Corrections in partnership with PSIMED CORRECTIONS, LLC, and the WV Department of Education to educate and challenge the beliefs of offenders in order to improve the offender’s ability to manage anger and interact with others in a socially acceptable manner.
General Intent of the Anger Management Program
1. To increase offender responsibility for their own emotions and subsequent reactions to those emotions.
2. To provide skills in the core components of anger management including: rational thinking, physical responses, and behavior responses.
3. To increase offender ability to react to conflict in an assertive manner rather than aggressive one.
4. To equip the offender with healthy interventions to stress.
5. To develop effective communication skills in the offender.
WV DOC - Mount Olive Correctional Complex (MOCC) is a facility in the West Virginia Department of Corrections. The DOC publishes the names of their current inmates and identifies which of their locations the inmate is being held. Your search should start with the first DOC locator to see if your loved one is there. Begin with the first three letters of the offender's first and last name, it does not have to be spelled exactly.
The second box is the InmateAid Inmate Search. This database of inmates is user-generated content for the purpose of accessing and utilizing any or all of the InmateAid services. If you need our assistance creating your own inmate profile to keep in touch, email us at aid@inmateaid.com and we will assist you in locating your inmate.
As a last resort, you might have to pay for that information if we do not have it. The Arrest Record Search will cost you a small amount, but their data is the freshest available and for that reason, they charge to access it.
