School Overview

The facility located at 3511 Bemis Road in Ypsilanti, Michigan, is the **Huron Valley Women’s Correctional Facility (WHV)**. It is the only prison in the state of Michigan that houses female offenders. Operated by the Michigan Department of Corrections, the facility is a multi-custody institution, meaning it manages prisoners ranging from those requiring minimal supervision to those classified at the maximum-security level.

The facility is designed to provide comprehensive correctional services, including housing, security, and rehabilitative programming. Because it serves as the state’s primary intake and confinement center for women, it offers a variety of educational and vocational opportunities aimed at preparing inmates for eventual reentry into society. These programs often include GED preparation, career and technical education, substance abuse treatment, and mental health services tailored to the specific needs of the female incarcerated population.
