The Detention Division of the Stephens County Sheriff’s Office is tasked with the responsibility to provide a safe and secure environment for the inmates incarcerated within the facility, the Detention Center Officers and staff, as well as any visitors within the facility.


The duties of Officers on staff at the Detention Center can be divided into two major groupings: the overall security of the facility (which includes the physical plant as well as all inmates, staff, and visitors) and the safe and orderly escort of inmates within the facility.

In addition to the primary mission of facility security, Detention Division Officers provide many other security and supervisory services. These include:


* Supervision of Inmate Meals

* Preparing inmates for transport to other facilities

* Receiving inmates arriving from outside facilities

* Inmate escort to Court Services

* Inmate escort and supervision at medical treatment

* Inmate escort and supervision at mental health treatment

* Conducting inmate visitation

* Conducting attorney visitation

* Escort and supervision of inmates to Drug Rehabilitation Services
