(Redirected from Arizona State Prison)

There are currently 14 prison complexes and 2 correctional treatment facilities, for state prisoners in the U.S. state of Arizona. This number does not include federal prisons, detention centers for the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, or county jails located in the state. There are 10 state prisons operated by the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation and Reentry (ADCRR), 4 private prisons and 2 private correctional treatment centers.

As of 2007 Arizona had exported more than 2000 prisoners to privately run facilities in Oklahoma and Indiana, a number that would have been higher if not for a riot of Arizona prisoners at the GEO Group's New Castle Correctional Facility on April 27, 2007, protesting the practice. As of 2013, the states of Vermont, California and Hawaii export prisoners to facilities in Arizona.
