Here are important facts:
- Private prisons house only 9 percent of inmates nationwide.
- Under longstanding policy, CoreCivic does not lobby on any policies, regulations or legislation that impact the basis for – or duration of – an individual’s incarceration or detention. We have launched a nationwide initiative to advocate for a range of government policies, including “Ban the Box” legislation, that will help former inmates successfully reenter society and stay out of prison. Read more about the initiative here.
- CoreCivic is subject to robust oversight and accountability measures by our partners. Most of them have full-time, onsite monitors in our facilities to ensure accountability and ease of communication, and all require regular review and audit processes.
