How to Connect With an Inmate at Willard Drug Treatment Campus

Willard Drug Treatment Campus (Willard DTC) is an intensive "boot-camp" style drug treatment campus for men and women. It's a voluntary 90-day program that's an alternative for people convicted of drug offenses who would otherwise be sentenced to state prison. In addition to substance abuse treatment services, the 900-bed specialized facility provides vocational training in flooring, painting, masonry, horticulture, and building maintenance for parolees who otherwise would go back to prison for a year or more.

Willard DTC will be closing in March 2022. According to DOCCS officials, the closure follows a drastic decline in the incarcerated population in the state. The correctional facility opened doors in 1995 on the former Willard Psychiatric State Hospital site.
