Your tour starts in the lobby...

DCSO is very proud of this, our ACA Accreditation for 2005-2008. It is also on display in the public area. The staff works hard to ensure we pass the next re-accreditation audit.

The public lobby, where family and friends arrive for visitation with inmates.

Everything from all articles of inmate clothing to their linens and towels comes through this laundry facility.

Pod F (unoccupied at the time this photo was taken) houses a maximum of 38 inmates in a barracks-style sleeping arrangement.

The dayroom of Pod F -- with additional tables and chairs, inmates use this area to eat, watch TV, make phone calls, etc.

The S.A.V.E. (Sheriff's Anti-Violence Effort) program offers classes to inmates with histories of violence, to teach them to accept responsibility for their actions and the consequences, and how to deal with conflict and anger more appropriately.
