    The jail consists of two General Population (GP) Units housing up to maximum security inmates and one Secure Housing Unit (SHU) used to hold offenders with serious behavioral or management concerns.

The facility also has a healthcare services building.
— 101 CONTACTING AN INMATE
  • — Written Contact
    Inmates serving their sentence at the Twin Towers Correctional Facility may be sent letters and care packages. Care packages can only be received from pre-approved addresses and contacts. Inmates may also send mail to pre-approved addresses. Inbound and outbound mail is thoroughly inspected by jail staff before delivery. Any attempt to smuggle contraband inside or outside of the institution through the mail may be met with criminal prosecution.

    To ensure that mail indeed reaches its intended recipient, please indicate the recipient address as follows:

    — Phone Contact
    Inmates assigned to General Population Units may use Twin Towers-provided phone services when not engaged in other activities to contact numbers pre-approved from jail staff. Inmates in a Secure Housing Unit placement may not make phone calls, exception made for emergency situations.

    The usage of facility phones is a privilege which can be revoked at the discretion of Deputies, such as for a violation of jail rules. All phone calls are recorded and may be monitored or reviewed.
