Lookup Adams County Adult Correctional Complex Inmates

Adams County Adult Correctional Complex Overview

Adams County Adult Correctional Complex, commonly shortened to ACACC, is operated by Adams County government as the county correctional institution. The official county page identifies Katy L. Hileman as Warden, lists the main facility phone as 717-334-7671, and describes the facility mission around pre-trial supervision, secure incarceration, correctional services, and community re-entry programs. The jail is not a state prison, federal prison, ICE detention center, or separate sheriff roster site. For Adams County jail custody, ACACC is the local facility to check first.

ACACC holds adults legally confined by Pennsylvania courts, the Adams County Court of Common Pleas, magisterial district courts, and other jurisdictions by which the person is confined. The population can include pretrial detainees, sentenced county inmates, classification inmates, general population inmates, people in administrative or disciplinary custody, work-release or re-entry participants, and people held pending release or transfer. The official materials reviewed do not publish a rated bed capacity. They do document a classification system, general population units, administrative and disciplinary custody, minimum-security work details, treatment services, and community corrections programming.

The official ACACC page shows the facility and links to key jail resources such as the handbook, visitation information, PREA materials, ConnectNetwork, and work release. The image below is from that official page and should be used as a facility reference point, not as proof that a person is currently in custody.

Because the county page links facility services rather than a live roster, the next step is to use the custody lookup chain below and confirm any visit, mail, or deposit instructions directly with ACACC before acting on them.

Adams County Adult Correctional Complex Capacity and Population

No official rated capacity was located in the Adams County or Pennsylvania DOC materials reviewed for this page. The strongest official population figures come from the Adams County 2026 Budget, which reports an ACACC 2025 year-to-date average daily population of 177.95 inmates and a 2024 average daily population of 215.65 inmates. The same research did not locate a public daily population dashboard, annual booking count, average length of stay, or demographic breakdown by sex, race, age band, sentence status, or hold type.

The decline from 215.65 ADP in 2024 to 177.95 ADP in 2025 YTD is 37.70 fewer average daily inmates, about a 17.5 percent decrease. The budget narrative does not identify one cause for that decline, so the page should not attribute it to bail policy, sentencing changes, crime trends, or any other outside explanation. Treat the budget as a population snapshot and use the facility phone or public-records channels when a current headcount is needed.

How to Look Up an Inmate at Adams County Adult Correctional Complex

No official Adams County public current-inmate roster was found on Adams County PA pages as of June 26, 2026. Do not rely on inmate-search pages for other Adams Counties in Colorado, Mississippi, or other states. For Pennsylvania custody, start with ACACC and then use the statewide or federal systems only when the custody level fits. Pennsylvania VINE / PASAVIN can help with custody notifications, UJS Case Search can show the court trail after an arrest, and the PA DOC locator service is for state-sentenced inmates and parolees, not people currently housed in a county facility.

1. Call ACACC at 717-334-7671 for current custody, visitor-list, and facility-specific questions.
2. Use Pennsylvania VINE / PASAVIN for custody-status notifications where the system has matching Adams County information.
3. Search UJS Case Search for charges, docket numbers, court events, and dispositions, while remembering that a docket does not prove current jail housing.
4. Use PA DOC only for state-sentenced inmates or parolees; use BOP only for federal prisoners, and ICE ODLS only for immigration detention.
5. For records not online, use the Adams County Right-to-Know page; county requests route to openrecords@adamscountypa.gov and court requests route to adamscountycourtsrighttoknow@adamscountypa.gov.

Adams County Adult Correctional Complex Address and Contact

Use the Major Bell Lane address for jail visits, inmate mail, deposits, and facility questions. The Adams County Sheriff's Office and the court records offices are tied to the Baltimore Street courthouse area, which is separate from ACACC. That distinction matters for people trying to visit an inmate, check a warrant, inspect a docket, or request a booking-related record.

Visiting Someone at Adams County Adult Correctional Complex

ACACC visitor materials list public lobby hours as Monday through Friday, 7:00am-3:00pm. Professional visitors who need to meet outside normal lobby hours must schedule ahead by calling 717-334-7671 during normal business hours. General contact visiting is not available. Visitors must be on the inmate's approved list, visits are normally at least 30 minutes and no more than one hour, and only one adult with up to two children may visit at a time. Visitors under 18 must be with a parent or legal guardian unless an under-18 spouse provides a marriage certificate.

Visits may be denied, cancelled, or ended if the visitor is not approved, is on Adams County Probation without prior approval, the inmate refuses or violates rules, the inmate is deemed non-tractable, or the room is at capacity. Booths are first come, first served. Call before traveling because housing status, disciplinary status, professional scheduling, and facility operations can change quickly.

Mail, Phone, and Money at Adams County Adult Correctional Complex

Mail must identify the inmate by name and Prison ID number and use the ACACC street address. Incoming mail is processed Monday through Friday and forwarded on first shift the following day. Mail must come through USPS with a return address. Photos no larger than 4x6 may be accepted, but Polaroids, nudity, gang-related activity, and drug or alcohol references are unauthorized. Books and publications require prior approval and must come directly from the publisher if ordered by an outside correspondent.

For deposits and phone accounts, ACACC materials point to lobby deposit options, Western Union Quick Collect, OffenderConnect, and ConnectNetwork services. The ConnectNetwork facility profile lists AdvancePay Phone, Trust Fund, Messaging, and Visitation Scheduling for Adams County PA Adult Correctional Complex. The county materials also note that commissary orders are weekly through the inmate telephone system and TID number.

Booking and Intake at Adams County Adult Correctional Complex

The ACACC handbook describes admission as a local jail process rather than a public web roster process. When a person arrives, staff process the person, arrange medical contact, assign an institution number, photograph and search the person, remove property and valuables for safekeeping, and place the person in Classification. A receipt is provided for property and money taken at intake. New commitments receive the inmate handbook, visitor-request list, uniforms, identification badge or bracelet, bedding, basic hygiene items, and related issue items.

Intake includes limited phone access. The handbook allows a local or long-distance call to a family member or friend, an attorney, and a bondsperson on the blue phone in intake, with calls limited to five minutes during admission. Attorney calls are not recorded. Classification begins on arrival and the minimum time expected in Classification is 72 hours. After orientation, treatment intake, and medical clearance, the primary housing assignment is determined with input from Treatment, Medical, and the Director of Treatment Services.

About Adams County Adult Correctional Complex

ACACC programs include Treatment Services, religious services, substance-abuse counseling, education, library, notary, barbering, recreation, commissary, work details, out-mate and re-entry services, medical care, mental health services, suicide-prevention procedures, PREA reporting, grievance review, and work release. Work Release is a privilege rather than an entitlement. The official Work Release page says the program can help participants maintain or secure employment, support family, and pay restitution, court costs, fines, child support, and other debts while serving the confinement portion of a sentence.

Recent official county records describe continuing facility operations and program spending. Adams County's 2026 Budget reports the 2025 YTD and 2024 ADP figures and notes supply-cost pressures. 2025 and 2026 board-agenda items referenced inmate health and fitness equipment paid with inmate commissary funds, inmate healthcare procurement activity, video conferencing replacement equipment, receiving-gate repair, and a PCCD "Transition to Recovery" project modification. No official DOJ consent decree, major jail-litigation page, death-in-custody report, new jail construction project, or closure notice was located in the reviewed official sources.
