This Division of Adult Institutions (DAI) supervises more than 20,000 persons in our care (PIOC) who have been sentenced by a court to a term of incarceration or re-incarceration due to revocation of their community supervision placement.

D​AI protects the public through secure and humane treatment of individuals who have been committed to its custody and affords PI​OC the opportunity to gain skills and insight into their criminal behavior that are needed to support a crime-free life upon release to the community.

The Division oversees 36 adult correctional facilities and three bureaus.
