Central Detention Facility The Central Detention Facility (CDF/DC Jail) is located in Southeast DC at 1901 D Street, SE. The current facility was opened in 1976. In July 2002, the United States District Court for the District of Columbia vacated the population capacity limit at the DC Jail imposed in the 1985 Campbell v. McGruder court ruling. In October 2007, the Executive Administration established a population capacity at the jail of 2,164. This number is within the ranges recommended by two consultants hired independently by the Council and the Department of Corrections leadership during 2004 and supports the agency’s compliance with the Jail Improvement Act of 2003. The majority of male inmates (females are housed at the Correctional Treatment Facility) housed in the Central Detention Facility are awaiting adjudication of cases or are sentenced for misdemeanor offenses. As a result of the National Capital Revitalization and Self-Government Improvement Act of 1997, sentenced felons are transferred to the Federal Bureau of Prisons. The Department offers a variety of programs to inmates housed at the DC Jail. These programs include: HIV/ AIDS Prevention, Education and Intervention Services; Individual and Group Counseling Services; Hispanic Life Skills; Book Club; Street Law; Literacy Education; Religious Services; Mental Health Adjustment; and Anger Management; among other life skills development and religious services.   Inmate Visiting   The Department of Corrections encourages inmates to maintain family and community ties by allowing visits, subject to the security requirements and orderly operation of the DC Jail.   Inmates receive visits according to their last name during regular visiting hours, 12:00 pm (noon) to 7:00 pm, Monday through Friday.  Visiting days are as follows:  A-H (Tuesday and Thursday); I-P (Wednesday and Friday); Q-Z (Monday).  Visits are not held on Saturday or Sunday.
