Sturtevant, WI Sturtevant Transitional Facility View
Sturtevant Transitional Facility is a state correctional facility in Sturtevant, Racine County, Wisconsin, operated by the Wisconsin Department of Corrections. It primarily houses sentenced adult inmates in DOC custody, often in a lower-security or transitional setting focused on supervision, programming, work opportunities, and preparation for release.

Its role in the justice system is to manage eligible state inmates near release or in community-transition status while maintaining custody, accountability, and reentry services.

If the person does not appear immediately, search again later or contact the facility or the Wisconsin Department of Corrections for guidance.
FAQs
How do I visit an inmate at Sturtevant Transitional Facility?
Visits are usually scheduled under Wisconsin Department of Corrections rules, and the inmate may need to add you to an approved visitor list before you can visit. Check the current visiting schedule, rules, and any registration requirements before going to the facility.
What do I need to bring when visiting Sturtevant Transitional Facility?
Bring a valid government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, state ID, or passport. Arrive early, follow the dress code, and do not bring prohibited items into the facility.
How do I make phone or video calls with an inmate?
Inmates generally cannot receive incoming calls, but they may place outgoing calls through the approved phone system. Video visits or remote calls, if available, must be set up through the facility’s approved service provider and may require an account.
How do I send mail to an inmate?
Address mail with the inmate’s full name, DOC number if known, and the facility mailing address. Mail is inspected, and items such as cash, contraband, or materials that violate facility rules may be rejected.
How does the commissary work?
Commissary lets inmates buy approved personal items, snacks, and hygiene products. Family or friends may be able to add money to an inmate account through the approved deposit method, subject to DOC rules and fees.
How is bail set and how do I post bond at Sturtevant Transitional Facility?
Bail is set by a court, not by the facility. Because this is generally a state DOC custody setting for sentenced inmates, bond may not apply unless the person has a separate pending case or hold; contact the court clerk or the agency holding the case for instructions.
What happens during the intake process at Sturtevant Transitional Facility and when will the inmate appear in the system?
Intake commonly includes identity verification, property inventory, health screening, classification review, and assignment to housing or programming. Records may take several hours to appear or update in the public search system, so check again later if the inmate is not listed right away.
