MO DOC – Algoa Correctional Center

MO DOC – Algoa Correctional Center basic information to help guide you through what you can do for your inmate while they are incarcerated. The facility's direct contact number: 573-751-3911

This facility is for adult inmates.

The inmates housed at Algoa Correctional Center located at 8501 No More Victims Rd in Jefferson City, MO 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.

Algoa Correctional is a minimum-security state prison that can house up to 1,500 adult male inmates. This prison has the distinction of being the only male correctional facility in Missouri that has the InnerChange Freedom Initiative program (IFI for short). This is a program offered by the prison fellowship ministries and starts in the last year or two of an inmate's sentence. The IFI program prepares inmates for life after prison by helping the offender to develop a spiritual and moral compass, and by creating a system of values within the inmate. While incarcerated here inmates can also participate in educational opportunities that allow them to earn a GED and adult basic education.
