This facility is for adult inmates.
The inmates housed at Rogers State Prison located at 1978 GA-147 in Reidsville, GA 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.
Rogers State Prison is a medium-security institution that incarcerates about 1,400 adult male inmates. This is one of the facilities that acts as a sex offender release site. Inmates at this institution can work farming, growing vegetables and produce, as well as working with cattle to produce milk and meat for various Georgia correctional facilities. General population inmates live in an open dormitory setting, while those who have been put in administrative segregation are housed in two-person cells, those who have been put into segregation can also be placed in isolation/single cells. Mental health observation on inmates is also conducted in a single cell setting. Inmates can work on a cattle farm, or doing general farm labor, including growing and harvesting of produce and dairy production. Those incarcerated here can also work in a canning factory, and in various supervised support positions within the county government doing things like custodial work, landscaping, maintenance, recycling and jobs within the department of transportation. Inmates also have access to vocational courses where they can learn a new skill like barbering, wastewater treatment, culinary skills, and automobile repair.
