The Peumansend Creek Regional Jail (PCRJ) is a 336-bed, co-ed, medium and minimum security, direct supervision facility located in Bowling Green, Virginia. The jail is an extension facility for the cities of Alexandria and Richmond, and the counties of Arlington, Prince William, Loudoun, and Caroline. It also serves as a holding facility for the Virginia Department of Corrections. The Peumansend Creek Regional Jail does not incarcerate direct booking inmates but inmates who have completed the booking and intake processes at the participating jurisdictions and DOC. PCRJ does not confine juveniles under the age of 18 within the facility. [more]

The mission of the facility is to provide detention services and those related operations deemed necessary for the protection of society, the health and custody of the inmates, and provide a safe working climate for the staff. Related services and programs will be provided to the inmate population whereby an inmate will have an opportunity to participate in these services and programs as determined in the assessments conducted by the classification staff at the time of intake.

The Peumansend Creek Regional Jail Authority offers a wide range of benefits designed to contribute to the security, well-being and quality of life of its employees. [more]

The facility believes the family unit is a critical part of the inmate's success at the facility as well as his release and re-integration into the community. The inmate is allowed and encouraged to receive approved visitors on the weekend. To encourage visitation and assist the family, the facility has placed a number of toys inside and outside the visitation area for children. While the adults are visiting, the children can play.

All inmates are expected to participate in a graduated work program where inmates start out in non-paying facility confined jobs and work their way to paying jobs. The showcase job assignment is to the Jail Industries Program where inmates are paid for creating a product or service for other government agencies or non-profit organizations. [more]
