This facility is for adult inmates.

The Broward County Paul Rein Detention Facility is a medium-security detention center located at 2421 NW 16th St Pompano Beach, FL which is operated locally by the Broward County Sheriff's Office and holds inmates awaiting trial or sentencing or both. Most of the sentenced inmates are here for less than two years. Broward County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Pompano Beach Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.

The Broward Sheriff's Office's newest detention facility opened in February 2004. Modeled after BSO's Joseph V. Conte Facility, is a direct supervision jail where staff works more closely with inmates and inmate movement is kept to a minimum. Designed to handle 1,020 inmates in two four-story towers, the medium/maximum security jail houses male and female inmates in separate areas. More than 200 deputies supervise the inmates with support from nearly three-dozen non-sworn BSO administrative employees.

The BSO In-Custody Behavioral Services Division operates both a Substance Abuse Program and Life Skills Program for inmates at the Paul Rein Detention Facility. These programs promote pro-social attitudes and behavior change in an effort to reduce criminal behavior. Additionally, the Chaplain's Office operates a Lifestyles Spiritual Unit. Because of direct supervision, higher security risk inmates don't have to leave their housing unit for visitation. A non-breakable window separates the housing unit from a visitation area and inmates and visitors can talk on a built-in telephone. The medical facilities include an on-site OB-GYN clinic to address the needs of pregnant inmates.

The Paul Rein Detention Facility, like all the BSO jails, provides inmates with nearly two-dozen different specialty diets including Kosher, vegetarian, high-calorie and low-calorie, prepared daily to meet the needs of the prisoners.

Housing Assignments – Individuals who are not released on bond are assigned to one of four BSO jails based upon objective criteria. This criteria ensures that inmates are housed in the least restrictive and safest unit possible based upon level of security required. Housing assignments are not made based on proximity to an inmate's home, but rather on the premise of assigning an inmate to the jail facility that can best meet his or her needs.
