The DC Central Detention Facility (CDF), commonly referred to as the DC Jail, has been operational since 1976 and serves primarily as a pretrial detention center for individuals awaiting adjudication or serving sentences for misdemeanor offenses. With a capacity of 2,164 inmates, it complies with the regulations set forth by the Jail Improvement Act of 2003 and plays a central role in the District of Columbia's correctional system.

Adjacent to the CDF is the Correctional Treatment Facility (CTF), which specializes in medium security and offers a range of rehabilitative programs and services. Additionally, the DC Department of Corrections operates the Fairview halfway house, providing community-based support and resources for women, including educational and job readiness programs aimed at promoting successful reintegration into society.
