At CoreCivic, innovation is at the forefront of meeting the needs of our government partners and the individuals in our care. While our partners rely on us to help solve current, specific challenges, they are also seeking a reliable partner who can develop effective and sustainable long-term solutions. That's why our approach to facility design, management and service provision includes constant engagement with a multifaceted set of stakeholders including, but not limited to, academics, community-based organizations, and people with lived experience. This approach allows us to better understand–and anticipate–how we can deliver solutions that better the public good.

Recently, some of these solutions have included redesigning our safety facilities to reflect a more "normalized" living environment. CoreCivic's normalization approach is aimed at creating a more rehabilitative environment inside our facilities that helps prepare returning citizens for the transition back to their communities. So far, the results of these efforts have been outstanding; CoreCivic is tracking a measurable improvement in both resident and staff well-being.

Vast Footprint: CoreCivic operates both secure and community-based facilities across the country. This geographically diverse footprint increases the likelihood that individuals will be able to be located near their judicial proceedings, allowing more frequent access to legal counsel and limiting the impacts of travel. This also keeps individuals closer to family and friends, while reducing interruptions to programming–both key components to mental well-being and reentry readiness.

Scalable Solutions: CoreCivic Properties maintains facilities that can be ready on short notice to address a variety of government partner needs or challenges. Our experienced real estate team is able to customize our facilities to meet unique requirements and our operations team can implement operational standards and procedures according to a partner’s specifications.  

Flexible Partnership Models: Aging infrastructure is a serious challenge across the landscape of public corrections, as antiquated facilities lack modern amenities and often have inadequate programming space. CoreCivic Properties has decades of experience in all phases of property development and offers a variety of solutions to address these issues including lease-only alternatives, or full design-build services that can deliver modern and efficient facilities on accelerated construction times, with flexible financing options that yield recurring annual cost savings.

At CoreCivic, we help government at all levels manage the challenges presented by geography, space, and aging infrastructure. We know that safe, modern facilities enhance individual well-being and play a key role in helping individuals successfully reenter their communities.
