Title: Virginia's Peculiar System of Local and Regional Jails

Summary: Responsibilities for jails – construction, operation, certification, funding, etc. – are spread across multiple state and local agencies. The state provides substantial funding for jails, but other than certifying and inspecting the facilities, it has little direct authority over operations. Because Virginia’s jail system is so fragmented – and often difficult to understand when trying to develop policies and programs concerning jails – this report was developed to provide a better understanding of the purpose, operations, funding, and development of Virginia’s jail system.
