| About
the Detention Center |
The Sheridan County
Detention Center was recently refitted to accomodate
126 inmates at any given time. Prior to that, our
facility was designed to house approxiamtely 50
inmates. The remodel and addition that was recently
completed has provided substantially more space
and overcrowding in the facility has not been an
issue.
The Detention Center offers various programs
and services for the inmates during their incarceration.
These include mental health, AA Meetings, work
release, inmate kitchen work, a GED Completion program, and religious
services.
