Warren Correctional Institution is a multi-custody prison housing male offenders in close, medium and minimum custody. The largest inmate population consists of medium custody offenders.
The opening of Warren Correctional Institution in 1997 permitted the consolidation of five smaller prisons in surrounding counties.
On August 18, 1997, the prison received its first medium custody inmates. The 168 single-cell building opened May 18, 1998. In August of 1999 the two modular dormitories opened, housing approximately 88 minimum custody offenders. Another 168 single-cell building was completed in August of 2004.
The janitorial products plant for Correction Enterprises, which produces soap and industrial cleaning products, was relocated to Warren from Harnett Correctional Institution. The plant was constructed by offenders participating in the Inmate Construction Program, working under the supervision of engineers from the Central Engineering section.
