Deuel Vocational Institution - Mission Statement

The mission for Deuel Vocational Institution (DVI) is two-fold:  DVI's primary mission is as a reception center for Northern California counties, and houses inmates who come to DVI primarily from 19 Northern California county jails.  DVI's secondary mission is to provide general population housing to inmates who are serving their prison sentence at DVI.

Institution Details

Reception Center:  Staff process these inmates by compiling and evaluating the inmates' criminal records, life histories, medical and physiological histories, and social histories.  The information is used to determine the inmates' custody score and to identify any specific placement needs the inmate may have.  Once the reception process is completed, the inmate is transferred to one of the 33 State prisons where they serve the remainder of their prison sentence.

General Population:  General population inmates provide support to DVI by working in maintenance jobs, food service jobs, janitorial jobs, as well as other jobs that serve in supporting the operation of the prison.  Prison Industries Authority (PIA) assignments are also available to general population inmates.  PIA assignment include jobs at DVI's dairy and in the furniture fabrication plant.
