Idaho State Correctional Center

The Idaho State Correctional Center (ISCC), located in Kuna, Idaho, is one of several prisons that make up the South Boise Prison Complex. Established in July 2000, it initially operated as Idaho’s first privately managed prison under the Corrections Corporation of America. With a capacity to house up to 2,160 male inmates across maximum, medium, and minimum security levels, it remains the largest correctional facility in the state.

Over the years, the ISCC has experienced significant changes. In 2014, the Idaho Department of Corrections took over its management amid concerns about issues like understaffing and inmate violence. Before this transition, the facility faced scrutiny for safety and operational challenges, including a 2010 lawsuit from the American Civil Liberties Union regarding high levels of violence within the facility.

Despite these challenges in its early history, the ISCC has since been managed directly by the state, with a renewed focus on efficiency and safety for both inmates and staff.

The prison’s latest visitation update shows its schedule for April 2025. Visits are offered four times a day, with each session lasting 1.5 hours. Visitors must check in promptly during designated windows, such as 7:30-7:45 a.m. for the 8 a.m. visiting slot. Visitation policies require all attendees to be pre-approved and registered with ICSolutions.

Beyond its operational aspects, ISCC plays a significant role in Idaho’s correctional system, providing oversight and rehabilitation for its inmate population. Its focus on strict policies and improved management reflects ongoing efforts to address challenges while fostering rehabilitation opportunities.
