As a division of the Sheriff’s Office, the Detention Center’s mission is to provide a clean, safe and secure place of confinement for persons committed or adjudicated to our facility by proper authority of law.

The Community Corrections Center is a 64 bed facility which houses male and female offenders.  Custody level is minimum security.  The facility serves the courts as a sentencing alternative to confinement in the Detention Center.
