This facility is for adult inmates.

The Union Parish Detention Center is a medium-security detention center located at 707 Rodeo Cir Farmerville, LA which is operated locally by the Union Parish 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. Union Parish County accepts inmates from surrounding towns, municipalities, the US Marshal's Service and the Farmerville Police Department who do not have their own long-term lock-up.

The Union Parish Detention Center is a 380-bed facility which houses adult male and female inmates for federal and parish pre-trial inmates and sentenced inmates, serving parish jail sentences or hard labor sentences (D.O.C.). Sentenced inmates who meet acceptable state, D.O.C. guidelines are assigned work inside the facility and for public agencies within the parish. These work assignments allow inmates to repay their debt to society.

We have an adult education program that allows inmates to receive a GED, teaches work and life skills for re-entry into society. We also have anger management classes, AA and NA programs.
