This facility is for adult inmates.
The inmates housed at CDCR – Vallecito Adult Conservation (Fire) Camp #1 located at 3225 Six Mile Road
PO Box 7 in Angels Camp, CA 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.

Camp History
Vallecito Conservation Camp, CC#1, was constructed and opened in 1958. Vallecito Conservation Camp is under the administrative supervision of Sierra Conservation Center (SCC). The camp’s primary mission is to provide inmate fire fighting crews for fire suppression and flood control activities in Calaveras and Tuolumne County areas as well as throughout the state of California. In addition to fire suppression and flood control, inmate fire crews provide a workforce for community service projects in the local area. The CAL FIRE in-camp project is fire hose pressure testing and repair. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) in-camp project is a large vegetable garden.
CDCR is responsible for the supervision, care and discipline of inmates. CDCR and CAL FIRE cooperatively maintain Vallecito camp. CAL FIRE supervises the inmate work crews on all community service projects. CAL FIRE is responsible for the safe custody of inmates while on their daily community service projects. Vallecito Camp maintains and operates a Mobile Kitchen Unit (MKU) which is dispatched to various emergencies throughout the state and is capable of serving large quantities of meals in remote areas. CDCR and CAL FIRE share the responsibility of training the supervising the inmate crew necessary to support this operation.
Inmate Programs
Spiritual services are provided by community volunteers. There is currently a General Equivalency Diploma (GED) program available for the inmates during their non work hours. Inmates quickly learn that life at a conservation camp is more desirable than behind the walls of a prison and, therefore, conduct themselves accordingly.
