Loxley Community Work Center

The Loxley Community-Based Facility/Community Work Center is a minimum-security facility that houses a maximum of 197 male inmates who have almost completed their sentence with the Alabama Department of Corrections. Their placement at the work center is intended to help with the inmate's transition back to the community. 

Loxley opened in October 1995 with the mission of housing low risk/minimum custody inmates who perform community service and work for various state, county, or city agencies.

Loxley inmates are classified as either "Minimum-Out" or "Minimum-Community." Minimum-Out inmates are usually assigned to Community Work Centers but can be assigned to off-property work details without the direct supervision of correctional officers. 

Minimum-Community inmates are allowed to have full-time jobs outside of the work center. They are supervised at the Loxley Community-Based Facility/Community Work Center when they're not working.
