Arizona State Prison Complex - Kingman

Since GEO Group took over the troubled Kingman private prison, the company and state have implemented changes to make the facility safer after a massive riot in 2015 displaced inmates.

Prior to assuming operations on December 1, 2015, GEO had a mobilization team onsite to ensure a smooth and necessary transition from the previous operator.

GEO offers academic courses such as ABE and GED as well as vocational courses to include Carpentry, HVAC, Electrical, Plumbing, Culinary Arts, and industry programs. The facility provides an on-site medical unit 24 hours a day. Library services, religious services, recreation yards including commissary are provided, and food services are provided in cafeteria style dining rooms.

The Arizona State Prison-Kingman Facility achieved initial accreditation through the American Correctional Association in 2017 with a score of 99.50%. The facility was also accredited by the National Commission on Correctional Health Care (NCCHC) in 2017.
