South Idaho Correctional Institution Records
South Idaho Correctional Institution is operated by the Idaho Department of Correction at 13900 Pleasant Valley Road in Kuna. IDOC lists Jennifer Tyvand as warden. The facility has capacity detail rather than a single simple number: IDOC says SICI houses 400 female residents and 300 male residents, and East Dorm is a 152-bed men's unit designed to help residents return successfully to their communities.
SICI's role is strongly tied to work and pre-release. IDOC says most residents are assigned jobs inside or outside the facility. Vocational Work Projects include road crews for the Idaho Transportation Department and conservation or firefighting crews for the U.S. Forest Service. Some residents work in Correctional Industries. SICI also operates the pre-release program for the majority of residents paroling from the Idaho prison system.
South Idaho Correctional Institution Search
The correct lookup is IDOC Resident/Client Search. It covers incarcerated residents, probation clients, and parole clients under IDOC jurisdiction. The search accepts last name or IDOC number and can show status, location, mailing data, and felony listings for people serving time. IDOC updates the data daily and warns that details can change quickly.
SICI search users should confirm the location before planning a visit or sending mail because pre-release, work project, parole preparation, and unit assignment can affect daily movement. A county arrest record is not enough to prove current SICI custody. If the person has left Ada County Jail after sentencing, use the IDOC result as the current state custody source.
- Search IDOC by last name or IDOC number.
- Read the status and location fields for SICI.
- Confirm whether the person is in SICI, East Dorm, or another IDOC placement.
- Use IDOC pages for visiting, phone, money, and mail.

South Idaho Correctional Institution Contact
Contact SICI for IDOC facility questions after confirming the resident is located there. Ada County Jail cannot manage state prison visits, work program details, pre-release placement, or IDOC resident accounts. Keep the county and state systems separate when asking for records.

South Idaho Correctional Institution Visiting
SICI visiting follows IDOC visiting rules and the facility schedule. IDOC warns that prison visiting schedules can change in emergency situations. Because SICI includes pre-release residents and work assignments, confirm the resident's current status and schedule before making travel plans.
Ada County Jail public video visiting does not apply to SICI. The sheriff's GettingOut process, county free visit allowance, and professional VVS system are not used for IDOC residents at SICI. State visiting approval and facility rules control.
| Visit Issue | SICI Rule Path | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| Family visit | IDOC visiting process | SICI is state custody. |
| Pre-release status | Facility confirmation | Work and parole preparation may affect availability. |
| County video visit | Not applicable | County rules apply only to Ada County Jail. |
South Idaho Correctional Institution Mail
Use IDOC mail guidelines, resident accounts, and phone services. SICI mail should use the IDOC mailing address and current resident identity details. Confirm the resident location before sending funds, letters, publications, or mail.
Do not use Ada County Jail scanned-mail, commissary, iCare, Telemate, or bond instructions. Those procedures support county jail inmates. SICI residents are under the state prison system, and money or communication mistakes can delay contact.
| Service | SICI Route | County Rule That Does Not Apply |
|---|---|---|
| IDOC mail rules and PO Box 8509 | Ada County Jail Phoenix mail | |
| Money | IDOC resident accounts | County commissary and bond counter |
| Calls | IDOC phone services | Ada County jail phone process |
SICI Ada County Custody Split
SICI's location in Kuna can make it seem local, but it is not part of the sheriff's detention roster. The county jail holds local pretrial, warrant, and short-sentence custody. SICI houses state residents, including many people moving toward parole or community release. Search the state system once IDOC custody begins.
The work and pre-release functions make SICI records more nuanced than a basic prison-location result. A resident may be assigned inside the facility, outside the facility on an approved work project, in East Dorm, or in another pre-release setting connected with parole preparation. Those program details do not change the public lookup system. IDOC remains the source for status and location, and facility confirmation remains important before a visit, mail item, or account deposit.
SICI also holds both male and female residents, unlike several nearby IDOC facilities that are limited by sex or custody level. Search users should avoid assuming a person is at SICI based only on gender, case origin, parole timing, or a past Ada County arrest. Confirm the current state record and then use the facility contact details.
The facility's work crews and pre-release role can also affect how outside contacts think about custody. A resident assigned to a road crew, conservation crew, Correctional Industries job, or East Dorm is still under IDOC authority. That status is different from an Ada County Community Transition Center participant, even though both settings may involve work, classes, or release preparation. Use the operator and locator to separate them: ACSO for local jail and CTC custody, IDOC for SICI residents and state release planning.
If a resident's public result changes from SICI to another location or community status, check IDOC again before sending funds or mail. Pre-release movement can happen near the end of custody and may not match an older jail or court record.
Use Ada County jail inmate records for sheriff custody and the Ada County inmate population page for the complete Ada County facility map. For notifications, remember that IDOC VINE service is noted as inactive during restoration, so IDOC Resident/Client Search is the direct current-location source.
Note: Confirm current SICI location through IDOC before using pre-release or work-program assumptions for a resident.
