Sterling Correctional Facility, prison in Sterling, Colorado, United States
Sterling Correctional Facility is a prison located in northeastern Colorado on an expansive piece of land across the open plains. The complex features high concrete walls and modern security infrastructure designed to accommodate over 2,500 inmates across multiple custody levels ranging from minimum to close custody.
The facility opened in June 1999 as part of Colorado's effort to address overcrowding in other state prisons. It was constructed with modern security systems and has become a key part of the state's correctional infrastructure.
Visitors can come during scheduled four-week visiting blocks with sessions available Friday through Sunday. Requests must be submitted at least seven days in advance via email with a completed form and current photo identification.
The facility operates a rotating four-week visiting schedule divided into blocks that cycles to give each inmate and visitors fair access to visits. This organized system spreads visits evenly across the month rather than allowing them to cluster on certain days.
