Summary

This point datalayer shows the location of 42 state and county correctional facilities in Massachusetts. The data was developed by the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection's (DEP) GIS Program based on database information provided by the Criminal History Systems Board (CHSB) (the state agency responsible for maintaining the Commonwealth's criminal justice information system), part of the Massachusetts Executive Office of Public Safety (EOPS). The EOPS is also the parent agency for the Massachusetts Department of Correction (DOC), which operates the Commonwealth's prison system.
