The Lehigh County PA Community Correction Center is a medium-security detention center located at 1600 Riverside Dr Bethlehem, PA which is operated locally by the Lehigh 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. Lehigh County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Bethlehem Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.

The Community Corrections Center is a 400-bed facility which provides a cost effective alternative to secure confinement. This facility affords sentenced individuals varied prescriptive rehabilitative programs, as well as the opportunity to enter the community for work, to perform community service work, and for other pro-social activities, under structured parameters.
