The facility generally houses sentenced state inmates who are in minimum-custody or transition status and are preparing to return to the community through employment, treatment, education, and supervision programs. It is not primarily a local jail for new pretrial arrests. Its role in the justice system is to support reentry while maintaining custody and accountability for eligible inmates under Idaho Department of Correction supervision.

How to Find an Inmate at Idaho Falls Community Reentry Center
To find someone here, use the official inmate search link available on this page for the facility’s roster or the Idaho Department of Correction resident search. Inmate rosters and custody records typically list the person’s name, ID or booking number, booking date or admission date, charges or controlling offense, and current custody status. Records do not always appear immediately after a person is booked, transferred, or processed; intake and data entry can take several hours, and state custody updates may take longer. If the person is not listed, check again later or contact the facility or the appropriate county jail if the arrest was recent.
FAQs

Commissary lets inmates buy approved items such as hygiene products, snacks, writing supplies, and other basic goods. Families may be able to deposit money into the inmate’s account through the approved payment method, but limits and fees may apply.
How is bail set and how do I post bond at Idaho Falls Community Reentry Center?
