WOMEN E. RECEP/DIAG COR C/DIAG

WOMEN E. RECEP/DIAG COR C/DIAG is a public school that is part of the DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS school district, located in VANDALIA, MO.

The facility you are referring to, **Women’s Eastern Reception, Diagnostic and Correctional Center (WERDCC)**, is a state-run correctional institution located in Vandalia, Missouri, operated by the Missouri Department of Corrections. Unlike a traditional school, this facility serves as the primary intake and classification center for all women entering the Missouri prison system. Upon arrival, inmates undergo a comprehensive diagnostic process that evaluates their educational, medical, mental health, and security needs to determine their appropriate long-term placement.

Beyond its function as a reception center, WERDCC serves as a long-term correctional institution that offers various rehabilitative programs. These include vocational training, educational opportunities (such as Adult Basic Education and high school equivalency programs), and various therapeutic services intended to assist inmates with substance abuse issues or behavioral health needs. The facility is designed to manage a diverse population of female offenders, ranging from those serving short sentences to those in long-term custody, while focusing on structured programming aimed at rehabilitation and eventual reintegration into society.
