About
Calhoun State Prison in Morgan is a medium-security prison for adult male felons. Constructed in 1993 and opened in 1994, it was later renovated in 1999 and 2008. Housing consists mainly of double-bunked cells and dormitory units with a segregation/disciplinary area. Calhoun supports standard work details and limited programming but, like many rural Georgia prisons, has been affected by chronic understaffing, lockdowns, and increased violence.
