Colorado Springs, CO Cheyenne Mountain Re-Entry Center View
Cheyenne Mountain Re-Entry Center in Colorado Springs, Colorado, is a state-contracted re-entry correctional facility rather than the primary El Paso County jail. It has been associated with Colorado Department of Corrections oversight and private contract operation, including Community Education Centers/The GEO Group in public records. The facility has primarily housed sentenced adult state inmates, often people nearing release who need structured custody, supervision, and re-entry programming. It is not generally used for new county arrests or routine pretrial detention; those individuals are typically processed through the El Paso County jail system. Its role is to support custody management and transition services within the Colorado corrections system.
Contact and Location Information
How to Find an Inmate at Cheyenne Mountain Re-Entry Center
To find someone held here, use the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility roster or the appropriate Colorado corrections search. Inmate rosters typically list the person’s name, booking or admission date, listed charges or sentence information, and current custody status. Because this facility is connected to state corrections rather than a standard county booking roster, some records may appear through a state inmate search, while recent local arrests may appear on the El Paso County jail roster. Records usually become searchable only after staff complete intake and data entry, which can take several hours. If a person was just arrested or transferred, the record may not appear immediately.
