The following is a list of all KDOC facilities eligible for PREA audits. Under the federal PREA mandate, a correctional facility is audited once every three years in a rotating cycle, beginning in 2014 with three facilities and continuing with three each year.

As facilities are audited and their corresponding audit reports are submitted to the KDOC, the audit report will be posted here in the corresponding facility. Lack of an audit report indicates that an audit has not been completed.

While services for medical and education are contracted for through private vendors, the facility's food service is supported by the Larned State Hospital. However staffing at LSCF is contractual. Meals are prepared at the state hospital kitchen and transported to the LSCF for serving to the Central Unit inmates. South Unit inmates eat their meals under LSCF staff supervision at the state hospital cafeteria.

Chaplaincy Services

The facility provides opportunities for inmates to practice their respective religious faiths. A full-time chaplain is the liaison for religious services and volunteers in the community.

Reeentry

Reentry services provide programming, such as Thinking for a Change courses and support for offenders based on the inmate’s specific risk and need areas as defined by screening and offender behavior.

Private Industries

Inmate employee positions are available in non-prison based industries programs for minimum-custody West Unit inmates. These programs are designed to help inmates learn and practice the pro-social skills and good work habits required to be self-sufficient, productive citizens ready to practice responsible crime-free behavior.
