Satellite Prison Camps

A satellite prison camp is a minimum-security camp administratively attached to a larger FCI, USP, FMC or correctional complex. The parent institution’s security level does not describe the camp itself.

How satellite camps differ

Administrative connection

The camp shares administration with a larger institution, but typically has separate housing and a minimum-security mission.

Parent security labels

A camp may sit beside a medium- or high-security institution. That label applies to the parent facility, not automatically to camp housing.

Work assignments

Camp residents may support institutional operations, but available jobs and programs vary. Verify specifics with the institution.
