Harnett County Detention Center is a maximum, minimum, and medium-security correctional facility in Lillington City, Harnett County, North Carolina. It is a purely adult facility that only holds offenders above 18 years of age who have defied the state laws. The detention center is operated and run by the Harnett County Sheriff’s Department with the help of the Carolina Department of Corrections.

This 106620 square foot correctional facility was opened in the 1930s as a detention center for state inmates working for road construction projects. Most of the inmates held here have been convicted of severe crimes and are serving sentences of more than one year. The facility was initially run by the State Highway Department with just a single dormitory but was handed to the county sheriff’s department.

It is organized into pods, seven in number, with each pod having 29 dormitories and 34 single cells. Each pod features two indirect male supervision maximum-security facilities and a direct supervision medium-security facility. It also contains a maximum and minimum security facility for female offenders, a laundry area, medical pods, a kitchen, and an intake/booking area.

The pods further have respective visitation areas, multi-purpose rooms, outdoor exercise areas, and a video visitation booth. There is also a fully-operational education building, chapel, and two vocational training centers.

Inmate Programs

Harnett County Jail Inmates are offered some rehabilitation programs to help them turn their lives around. These programs help them transition back into society, arming them with skills to get jobs and the right mental frame to embrace the outside world without falling back into crime.

  • Sex Offender Accountability and Responsibility Program; this program was launched by the Prison Mental Health Services. This product attends to 46 offenders within a 20-week program cycle.

Mails and Packages

Interactions between the outside world and inmates in any correctional facility are quite limited, and the only way an inmate could contact the people outside is through mails. Families and friends of the inmates can send them mails, and the inmates could write back. This is among the most used avenue of interaction and contact with inmates. Moreover, an inmate’s loved ones could also send them approved packages.

The allowed types of mails include clean postcards, gift cards, and general letters. However, all these are subject to inspection before they are handed out to the inmates. They should not have contrabands or any illegal items. Moreover, the content should not compromise the security and calm at the facility.

Inmates also receive packages such as release clothing when they are almost getting released. Moreover, they can receive publications such as newspapers, magazines, and books that have been obtained directly from a reputable vendor or publisher. The publications’ content should be clean without any obscenity.

Inmate Money

Inmates can receive money from their loved ones or any other credible sources into their commissary accounts. They use this money to buy additional items that do not feature on the jailer’s menu. The authorized means of cash transfer to an inmate’s account at Harnett County Detention Center are:

  • At the TouchPay kiosk at the jail lobby
  • Online through TouchPay.com
  • Through MoneyGram, GTL, and Western Union’s locations

Phone Calls
