The primary mission of Pondville Correctional Center is protecting the public's safety through responsible reintegration of the offenders. The focus of the facility's operations are two fold. First, all inmates are required to work unless a medical condition exists. By placing emphasis on these two areas, the offender is better prepared in making the transition from prison life into the community. There are no walls or fences at this minimum facility.
Security is maintained through regular inmate counts and the strict accountability for inmates.
Emphasis is placed on reintegration programs, focusing on work, education and counseling services. Each level 3 inmate is expected to maintain a daily job assignment in one of eleven different job titles. Job assignments are intended to provide the offender with opportunities to develop and maintain viable work skills and dependable work ethics. Pondville Correctional Center inmate work crews are under officer supervision while away from the facility. These crews work at other higher security level correctional facilities doing outside grounds work and cleaning within the institutions.
