South Boise Women's Correctional Center Records
South Boise Women's Correctional Center is operated by the Idaho Department of Correction at 13200 Pleasant Valley Road in Kuna. IDOC lists Dagoberto Martinez as warden and gives the operating capacity as 306. The facility houses female retained-jurisdiction residents, often called Rider residents, in two separate housing units. A retained-jurisdiction placement is a court-controlled prison commitment period that can involve treatment, programming, and later review.
IDOC describes SBWCC as a treatment and transition facility. Programming is based on cognitive and behavioral change through intensive treatment, education, and accountability. Case management services may include initial intake, face-to-face contacts, treatment plans, problem solving, parole plans, transitional funds, aftercare plans, financial planning, community resources, and classroom or program delivery. That program focus should shape how the page is read: SBWCC is a state correctional treatment facility, not an Ada County Jail unit.
South Boise Women's Correctional Center Lookup
Use IDOC Resident/Client Search for SBWCC residents. The database covers people under IDOC jurisdiction, including those incarcerated, on probation, or on parole. It may show IDOC number, name, birth year, status, location or mailing address, and felony listings for active sentences. IDOC updates the database daily, but warns that data can change quickly.
For SBWCC, pay close attention to status and location because retained jurisdiction may involve later court review, parole planning, or movement to a different IDOC setting. If no mailing address is shown, IDOC says to check again after the person arrives in custody. The Ada County roster is not the right lookup for a SBWCC resident unless the person is separately held in sheriff's jail custody.

South Boise Women's Correctional Center Contact

Use the facility's official page and IDOC resident services for the current route and latest resident instructions.

South Boise Women's Correctional Center Source
The official SBWCC page is the source for the facility's treatment mission, capacity, retained-jurisdiction population, case-management detail, address, and phone number.
The screenshot ties SBWCC to the state prison system and helps distinguish female Rider custody from Ada County Jail booking records.
South Boise Women's Correctional Center Visiting
SBWCC visits follow IDOC visiting rules and the current facility schedule. Because SBWCC is a treatment and transition facility, program participation and custody status may matter. IDOC facility pages also warn that visiting schedules can change during emergency situations.
Do not use Ada County Jail public video visitation for SBWCC. County GettingOut rules, free online county visits, and Ada County professional VVS scheduling are for sheriff's jail custody. SBWCC residents are searched, visited, mailed, and funded through IDOC processes.
| Visit Topic | SBWCC Path | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Family visits | IDOC approval and schedule | Confirm current status before travel. |
| Program status | Facility guidance | Treatment placement can affect availability. |
| County video visits | Not applicable | Ada County Jail system does not cover SBWCC. |
South Boise Women's Correctional Center Mail
Use IDOC mail guidelines, resident accounts, and phone services. SBWCC mail should follow IDOC rules and the facility mailing address. Include the correct resident identity details from IDOC search when required by the current mail process.
Ada County Jail's Phoenix mail-processing address, iCare package rules, jail commissary balances, and bond payment instructions do not apply. SBWCC is state custody, and IDOC resident services are the controlling source for communication and accounts.
| Service | Correct Route | Not Used |
|---|---|---|
| IDOC mail rules and SBWCC PO Box | Ada County scanned jail mail | |
| Money | IDOC resident accounts | County commissary or bond counter |
| Phone | IDOC phone services | Ada County jail phone account route |
SBWCC Ada County Custody Split
SBWCC is in Ada County, but it is not a county jail. The sheriff's roster handles local arrest and jail custody. IDOC Resident/Client Search handles state prison and retained-jurisdiction residents. That distinction is vital when a woman moves from local booking or court custody into a Rider placement at SBWCC.
Retained jurisdiction also changes how records should be read. A Rider placement is tied to court review and programming rather than a simple county jail sentence. IDOC's facility description points to treatment plans, parole planning, aftercare, financial planning, and community resources. Those services do not make the resident a county inmate, and they do not put the resident back on the Ada County jail roster. The state locator remains the custody source while IDOC has jurisdiction, including when the person is still tied to an Ada County criminal case.
The two-unit treatment setting also affects what a search result can and cannot answer. IDOC search can confirm status, location, birth year, IDOC number, and available mailing information, but it does not explain every treatment plan, court-review date, or program milestone. Those details may be restricted or handled through the court, attorney, case manager, or facility process. For public lookup purposes, the key is to separate three records: the original Ada County booking, the court case that ordered retained jurisdiction, and the IDOC resident record showing SBWCC placement.
If a woman does not appear in the Ada County roster after a Rider order, that absence may reflect transfer to state custody rather than release. Check IDOC first, then use the court case for formal status.
Use Ada County jail inmate records for sheriff custody and the Ada County inmate population overview for the full county jail and IDOC facility map. VINELink may support some Idaho notifications, but IDOC VINE service is noted as inactive during restoration, so direct IDOC search is the main current-location route.
Note: Confirm SBWCC location and visiting status with IDOC because retained-jurisdiction custody can involve program and court-review changes.
