Reception Diagnostic Center Indiana

Reception Diagnostic Center

Reception Diagnostic Center is located in Plainfield Indiana.  It is a maximum security institution due to the varying custody levels of the inmates who go through this facility for classification.  The Reception Diagnostic Center is often the first stop for many inmates, where they will be evaluated and given a physical.  The evaluations and interviews done by the staff will decide which correctional facility will best be able to accommodate the inmate's treatment and security needs.  Because it is a temporary facility for inmates programs are limited to dental, physical, educational, and psychological examinations, in addition to various lab work like DNA testing.

All adult offenders, and some juvenile offenders who were tried as adults are first sent to the Reception Diagnostic Center.  The only offenders who get to bypass this first step are those who have been sentenced to death, they will go directly to death row at Indiana State Prison.  This facility can house almost 700 offenders.

Visiting Hours at Reception Diagnostic Center:
