ASPC Tucson – Rincon Unit basic information to help guide you through what you can do for your inmate while they are incarcerated. The facility's direct contact number: 520-574-0024

This facility is for adult inmates.

The inmates housed at ASPC Tucson – Rincon Unit located at 10000 S Wilmot Rd in Tucson, AZ are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the past criminal history and the length of their sentence). There are ample educational and vocational training programs for all inmates, especially ones that show a willingness to learn new things that will prepare them for a better life when they are released. The mission is to promote and prepare the offender to leave in better shape than when they arrived, giving them the best chance to never come back and thus lower the state's recidivism rate.

Work Programs – As part of an Intergovernmental Agreement ASPC-Tucson has approximately 28 inmate off complex work crews. There are also; two onsite call centers for hometown heroes that employ 78 inmates; Arizona Department of Transportation work crews that conduct off-site trimming and cleaning debris from the medians and sides of roads, two wild land fire crews that also spend off season assisting with brush abatement and a work crew at the Kartchner Caverns State Park located in Benson, Arizona. The offsite work crews cover an area between Tucson, Nogales, Marana, Benson and Sells. There are ten crews that work on site, outside of the secure perimeter to maintain the Complex.

In addition to these inmate crews, each unit is allocated a WIPP (Work Incentive Pay Plan) budget based on the number of inmates assigned to the unit. On average over 1900 inmates are paid to work at jobs ranging from labor crews which clean the yard, rake rocks and mow lawns, to semi-skilled and skilled jobs such as clerical, barber and maintenance jobs. Inmates may also work half a day and attend vocational education classes half a day for which they also receive WIPP wages. The Arizona Correctional Industries Sign Shop at ASPC-Tucson employs up to 26 inmates at an average wage of $.65/hour. These inmates reclassified as skilled to highly technical, depending on the job involved. Most positions require a background in computer, silk screen, painting or metal fabrication.

For a second offense, there will be a permanent loss of visitation privileges.
