Department of Correction and Rehabilitation (DOCR)
Divisions
The Department of Correction and Rehabilitation consists of five divisions. Montgomery County Detention Center, Montgomery County Correctional Facility, Pre-Trial Services, Pre-Release and Reentry Services, and Management Services Division plus the Director's Office.
The Director's Office provides oversight and direction for all Department of Correction Rehabilitation activities in coordination with the County Chief Administrative Officer the County Executive.
Montgomery County Detention Center (MCDC) - Detention Services
The Montgomery County Detention Center (MCDC) is responsible for the intake and processing of adult male and female offenders and will maintain a capacity of up to 200 inmates. Over 16,000 offenders annually arrive at the Central Processing Unit (CPU) within MCDC. The facility operates as the Intake Unit, providing psychological screening, medical screening, and risk assessment to determine the appropriate classification level of inmates and provides for the initial care, custody, and security of inmates for up to 72 hours prior to transfer to the MCCF.
Montgomery County Correctional Facility (MCCF) - Detention Services
The Montgomery County Correctional Facility (MCCF) is responsible for the custody and care of male and female offenders who are in a pretrial status or serving sentences of up to 18 months. The facility's current capacity is 1,028 inmates. A comprehensive approach to inmate programming is in place covering substance abuse, mental health issues, cognitive behavioral modification, basic education, life skills, and workforce preparation.
The Pre-Trial Services Division (PTS) is responsible for assessing newly arrested defendants for the the possibility of release into the community while awaiting trial and for subsequently supervising those defendants safely in the community. There are four independent programs within the division: Pre-Trial Assessment Unit, Pre-Trial Supervision Unit, Alternative Community Service Program (ACS), and Intervention for Substance Abusers Program (IPSA).
Pre-Release and Reentry Services - PRRS
The Pre-Release and Reentry Services Division (PRRS) provides community-based residential and non-residential alternatives to secure confinement for sentenced adult offenders in which they engage in work, treatment, education, family involvement, and other services to prepare them for release. The goal of the division includes both reducing the inmate population in the detention facilities by managing carefully screened and selected individuals in a community setting and reducing future offending and victimization by equipping soon-to-be released individuals with the skills, direction, services, and cash savings that will assist them in leading law-abiding and productive lives.
The Management Services Division (MSD) provides central administrative and management services and direction for all administrative functions across the department, develops and coordinates the implementation of the department's operation budget and capital improvement program (CIP), and develops administrative policies and procedures. Core services provided include: fiscal and human resources management and financial audits oversight; accounts payable management; training (pre-service and in-service) and training program development; grants, contracts, and procurement development; expenditures and revenue oversight; information technology and telecommunication systems development, training, and maintenance; management analysis; planning support; and special projects.
