Rural Counties, State Prisons, and ICU Beds Rural Counties, State Prisons, and ICU Beds This is an analysis of the adult state Department of Corrections controlled-incarcerated population in every state and how that compares to the number of ICU beds in each county where the facility is located as well as the percentage of that county that is incarcerated. • The numbers do not include juvenile facilities or juvenile offenders, transition/re-entry centers, work release centers (boot camps, work camps, farms, etc.). Public data was not available for Missouri, North Carolina, Texas, and Wyoming. • All state prison population data and institution data come from state DOC websites. If data is missing, its public DOC source was unavailable. • The county population data is from the Census Bureau's American Community Survey, which counts incarcerated individuals as residents of the county they are incarcerated in. See: https://www.census.gov/newsroom/blogs/director/2010/03/so-how-do-you-handle- prisons.html. • The ICU bed data is from the Kasier Family Foundation. See: https://khn.org/news/as- coronavirus-spreads-widely-millions-of-older-americans-live-in-counties-with-no-icu- beds/#lookup. • In some cases, the DOC data updates daily; therefore, the "Population" may not exactly match the data represented on future dates. Rural Counties State Prison Analysis: • Rural counties are defined as counties of less than 50,000 residents. • The datasets do not include contracted mental health or drug treatment beds (they do include any state-run treatments). The data also does not include other law enforcement agency contracted beds in jails, out-of-state beds, or beds from state police, etc. • The data includes private prisons. • The data does not include closed/closing prisons that no longer have a general population. • The data also do not include any incomplete data. * includes incarcerated population State State Prison Population County # of ICU Beds Total County Population* Population aged 60+* % of County Pop Incarcerated Alabama Easterling Correctional Facility 1,104 Barbour 5 26,201 6,150 8.86% Alabama Ventress Correctional Facility 1,218 Barbour Alabama Bibb Correctional Facility 1,834 Bibb 0 22,580 4,773 8.12% Alabama Bullock Correctional Facility 1,554 Bullock 0 10,478 2,371 14.83% Alabama Fountain Correctional Facility 1,258 Escambia 14 37,621 8,677 5.84% Alabama Holman Correctional Facility 938 Escambia Alabama Hamilton Aged & Infirmed 284 Marion 4 30,058 8,196 0.94% Alaska Yukon Kuskokwim Correctional Center 199 Bethel 0 17,957 2,082 1.11% Alaska Lemon Creek Correctional Center 245 Juneau 9 32,434 5,907 0.76% Alaska Ketchikan Correctional Center 49 Ketchikan Gateway 4 13,745 2,951 0.36% Alaska Anvil Mountain Correctional Center 136 Nome 0 9,869 1,151 1.38% Arizona Safford 1,634 Graham 0 37,700 6,933 4.33% Arkansas Delta Regional Unit 616 Chicot 0 11,008 2,835 5.60% Arkansas Ouachita River Unit 1,840 Hot Spring 6 33,480 8,417 5.50% Arkansas North Central Unit 815 Izard 0 13,521 4,226 6.03% Arkansas Grimes Unit 1,078 Jackson 0 17,429 4,039 11.91% Arkansas McPherson Unit 997 Jackson Arkansas East Arkansas Regional Unit 1,557 Lee 0 9,614 2,289 16.20% Arkansas Cummins Unit 1,952 Lincoln 0 13,885 2,882 25.84% Arkansas Varner/Varner Supermax Unit 1,636 Lincoln Arkansas Texarkana Regional Correction Center 124 Miller 0 43,760 9,791 0.28% California Mule Creek State Prison (MCSP) 4,000 Amador 6 37,306 12,967 10.72% California Pelican Bay State Prison (PBSP) 2,675 Del Norte 6 27,442 6,262 9.75% California California Correctional Center (CCC) 4,300 Lassen 0 31,470 5,929 24.32% California High Desert State Prison (HDSP) 3,353 Lassen Colorado Buena Vista Correctional Facility - BVCC 1,199 Chaffee 2 18,818 6,312 6.37% Colorado Arkansas Valley Correctional Facility - AVCF 1,040 Crowley 0 5,514 1,074 18.86% Colorado Delta Correctional Center - DCC 473 Delta 6 30,217 9,773 1.57% Colorado Arrowhead Correctional Center - ACC 518 Fremont 4 46,601 12,609 10.18% Colorado Centennial Correctional Facility - CCF 275 Fremont Colorado Colorado State Penitentiary - CSP 691 Fremont Colorado Colorado Territorial Correctional Facility - CTCF 908 Fremont Colorado Fremont Correctional Facility - FCF 1,599 Fremont Colorado Four Mile Correctional Center - FMCC 517 Fremont Colorado Skyline Correctional Center - SCC 236 Fremont Colorado Trinidad Correctional Facility - TCF 492 Las Animas 0 14,151 4,307 3.48% Colorado Limon Correctional Facility - LCF 899 Lincoln 0 5,520 1,200 16.29% Colorado Sterling Correctional Facility-SCF 2,428 Logan 4 21,885 5,056 11.09% Florida Baker C.I. 1,047 Baker 0 27,537 5,367 3.80% Florida Florida State Prison (FSP) 1,460 Bradford 0 26,775 6,394 11.38% Florida FSP West Unit Annex 802 Bradford Florida Lawtey C.I. 785 Bradford Florida Calhoun C.I. 1,299 Calhoun 0 14,458 3,483 8.98% Florida Desoto Annex 1,338 DeSoto 8 35,675 9,739 3.75% Florida Cross City C.I. 916 Dixie 0 16,323 5,078 8.26% Florida Cross City East Unit 432 Dixie Florida Franklin C.I. 1,346 Franklin 0 11,675 3,127 11.53% Florida Quincy Annex 408 Gadsden 0 46,113 10,880 0.88% Florida Lancaster C.I. 525 Gilchrist 0 17,191 4,554 3.05% Florida Gulf C.I. 1,407 Gulf 0 16,018 3,954 16.44% Florida Gulf Annex 1,227 Gulf Florida Hamilton C.I. 981 Hamilton 0 14,238 3,247 15.59% Florida Hamilton Annex 1,239 Hamilton Florida Hardee C.I. 1,227 Hardee 0 27,326 5,531 4.49% Florida Holmes C.I. 1,128 Holmes 0 19,483 4,989 5.79% Florida Apalachee C.I.

    Survivors Speak Prisoner Testimonies of Torture in United States Prisons and Jails A Shadow Report Submitted for the November 2014 Review of the United States by the Committee Against Torture I. Reporting organization The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) is a Quaker faith based organization that promotes lasting peace with justice, as a practical expression of faith in action. AFSC’s interest in prison reform is strongly influenced by Quaker (Religious Society of Friends) activism addressing prison conditions as informed by the imprisonment of Friends for their beliefs and actions in the 17th and 18th centuries. For over three decades AFSC has spoken out on behalf of prisoners, whose voices are all too frequently silenced. We have received thousands of calls and letters of testimony of an increasingly disturbing nature from prisoners and their families about conditions in prison that fail to honor the Light in each of us. Drawing on continuing spiritual insights and working with people of many backgrounds, we nurture the seeds of change and respect for human life that transform social relations and systems. AFSC works to end mass incarceration, improve conditions for people who are in prison, stop prison privatization, and promote a reconciliation and healing approach to criminal justice issues.

  • THE DOC EAGLE Summer, 2003 “Soaring to Greater Heights of Excellence”
    Volume 2, Issue 1 THE DOC EAGLE Summer, 2003 “Soaring to Greater Heights of Excellence” Message From the Acting Commissioner... Georgia, its taxpayers, and its state agencies are facing a difficult time due to the economy. Our de- partment, in particular, faces the challenges of providing public safety by ensuring that we do not let even one of the 47,000 prisoners in our custody escape and that we provide effective supervision to the 125,000 probationers on our caseloads. We are doing this in Fiscal Year 2004 with $41 million less than we had last year. We can only perform our important mission, even in the best of times, with good leadership. Leadership is even more important during difficult times. And the kind of leadership we need must exist all the way from the commissioner’s office to the folks doing the front line work in our facilities and on the street. During my military duty in Washington, D.C., this summer, I have had the opportunity to visit some historic sites and many of the memorials in this city, from Mt. Vernon to the Lincoln Memorial. They Joe Ferrero have all reminded me of the leadership that our Founders and those who followed brought to our Acting Commissioner country during its difficult times. I have also had the opportunity to study while stationed here. Dur- ing my studies, I came across a quote from Colonel John Boyd, USAF (retired), who said that leader- ship is “the art of inspiring people to cooperate and enthusiastically take action toward the achieve- ment of uncommon goals.” (Cont.

  • In the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia Macon Division
    Case 5:04-cv-00342-DF Document 30 Filed 03/30/06 Page 1 of 27 IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT FOR THE MIDDLE DISTRICT OF GEORGIA MACON DIVISION EDNA G. PRIMAS, : : Plaintiff, : : vs. : 5:04CV342 (DF) : BOARD OF REGENTS OF THE : UNIVERSITY SYSTEM OF : GEORGIA, : : Defendant. : O R D E R Plaintiff Edna G. Primas has sued Defendant Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia, alleging claims for employment discrimination based on her race and gender under 42 U.S.C.A §§ 1981 & 1983 (West 2003) and under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C.A. § 2000e et seq. (West 2003). Currently before the Court is Defendant’s Motion for Summary Judgment (doc. 16). For the following reasons, Defendant’s motion is hereby granted. I. BACKGROUND Defendant Board of Regents of the University System of Georgia (“Board”) manages and controls the Medical College of Georgia, which in turn operates an entity called Georgia Correctional Healthcare (“GCHC”). GCHC, under a contract with the Georgia Department of Corrections (“GDC”), provides medical services to Georgia Case 5:04-cv-00342-DF Document 30 Filed 03/30/06 Page 2 of 27 prisoners. Plaintiff Edna Primas, a black female, was employed by GCHC at Pulaski State Prison (“Pulaski State”) in Hawkinsville, Georgia, from August 12, 2002 until her termination on December 18, 2003. Apart from recognizing each other as parties to the lawsuit, there is very little in this case about which Primas and the Board can agree. While the parties generally agree that the work environment in the medical unit at Pulaski State was tumultuous during Primas’s tenure there, they disagree as to the cause — Primas insists that the medical unit was rife with racial antagonism, while the Board maintains that an internal personnel shakeup and Primas’s lack of interpersonal and management skills were to blame.
