Visitors

The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation oversees the incarceration of both adult and juvenile offenders, as well as providing parolee services to adult and juvenile offenders.

This page is intended to assist the general public in locating, contacting, visiting and corresponding with inmates and juveniles who are in a CDCR prison or juvenile facility.

Currently there are 33 adult prisons, 13 adult community correctional facilities, and eight juvenile facilities in California that house more than 165,000 adult offenders and nearly 3,200 juvenile offenders. In addition, there are more than 148,000 adult parolees and 3,800 juvenile parolees supervised by the CDCR.
