Kotzebue Regional Jail is located in the city of Kotzebue, Alaska which has a population of 3,272 as of 2013 residents. This prison has a capacity of 12 inmates, which means this is the maximum amount of beds per facility. Kotzebue Regional Jail began processing inmates once the original construction was completed and service started in 1995 but may have been expanded or renovated since that time, to accommodate the growing prison population. Prisoners are housed in separate areas depending on the crimes they committed, their current risk assessment, and their behavior. This facility is currently under the supervision of Superintendent Joe Mills-Bain and houses Male and Female offenders.
