The mission of the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) is to protect society by confining offenders in the controlled environments of prison and community-based facilities that are safe, humane, cost-efficient, and appropriately secure, and that provide work and other self-improvement opportunities to assist offenders in becoming law-abiding citizens. To accommodate a portion of the federal inmate population, the BOP is moving forward with development of a new Federal Correctional Institution (FCI) and Federal Prison Camp (FPC) on the grounds of USP Leavenworth. Among the objectives for developing a new FCI and FPC is to meet the on-going need for modern federal correctional facilities and infrastructure as well as to address an identified need for a new FCI and FPC in Leavenworth.
