Delaware County Prison

The vision of George W. Hill Correctional Facility is to increase public safety in Delaware County by providing care, custody, and control of incarcerated persons. We promote correctional practices and exceed standards to maximize the safety of the community, employees, and those entrusted in our care. We provide education and training opportunities for employees to strengthen their expertise in correctional practices and specialized areas to enhance the institution and provision of services. We will continue to explore critical issues, best and promising practices, and matters of public policy to collaborate with the criminal justice system and Delaware County stakeholders. We will serve as a conduit for other health services and criminal justice partners to safely reduce the jail population and overall recidivism. We will provide a continuum of programs, education, services, and workforce opportunities to meet the needs of those entrusted to our care, to reduce criminogenic behaviors, increase law-abiding behavior, increase self-actualization and improvement behaviors, and gain or restore overall health. Through the fulfillment of this vision, George W. Hill will be a leader in the field of corrections.
