Hilo, HI Kulani Correctional Facility View

Kulani Correctional Facility (KCF) is a 200-bed minimum security prison located on the slope of Mauna Loa, approximately 20 miles south east of Hilo, Big Island of Hawai’i. KCF’s goal is to have all inmates working and attending their required programs and extracurricular educational and training classes. KCF strives to facilitate a safe living and working environment in order to prepare inmates for furlough and re-entry into local communities. Along with mandatory treatment programs, KCF offers G.E.D. and Educational and Vocational training classes. Through a partnership with Hawaii Community College (HCC), Office of Continuing Education & Training (OCET), KCF offers an Agriculture / Horticulture Program, Facility Maintenance Program, and Hale Mua ‘O Kulani Hawaiian Culture Program. The HCC OCET program also offers Foundation Skills and Personal Enrichment classes. Agriculture and Foundational Skills’ Certificates of Completion can be submitted to the HCC when enrolling for courses and the associated credits will be applied. KCF Worklines include janitorial, utility, and food services. The KCF community service workline provides landscape maintenance at the Pana’ewa Zoo several times a month and the KCF conservation workline assists DLNR staff with projects in the Pu’u Maka’ala Natural Area Reserve. KCF Hawaii Correctional Industries allows inmates to strengthen their work skills and earn wages via contracts and agreements with our Department and other state agencies..
