Missouri Correctional Ctr

What Missouri Correctional Ctr does

The Missouri Department of Corrections (MODOC) is a state government agency headquartered at 1915 William Street in Jefferson City, Missouri, operating under the authority of the Governor of Missouri. The agency operates 20 adult correctional institutions spanning minimum, medium, maximum, and diagnostic security levels across the state, supported by 29+ probation and parole district offices organized into six regional zones. With approximately 11,000 staff, MODOC delivers incarceration, community supervision, rehabilitative programming, and reentry services to justice-involved Missourians, plus victim notification and advocacy services through the Office of Victim Services.

The agency's core services are Adult Institutions (incarceration), Probation and Parole Supervision, and Missouri Vocational Enterprises (MVE), which runs 22 factories in 12 facilities providing vocational training and apprenticeships. Programming overlays include the Prison Nursery Program (launched February 2025 at WERDCC), Puppies for Parole (8,000+ dogs adopted since 2010), Restorative Justice Gardens (10+ tons of produce donated annually), academic and career-technical education through partnerships with eight universities, and Medication-Assisted Treatment delivered with Centurion and Gateway. The stated per-inmate operating cost was $58.85 per day as of 2018.

MODOC's revenue model is dominated by Missouri state budget appropriations; secondary revenue streams include intervention fees of up to $60 per month (set at $30) charged to offenders on probation, parole, or conditional release, sales from Missouri Vocational Enterprises, and transaction-based inmate account deposit fees. The Justice Reinvestment Initiative launched in 2018 through House Bill 1355 and Executive Order 18-08 reframed the agency's strategy toward reducing incarceration rates while expanding community-based treatment.
