OCCC Future Plans

The Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (DCR) provides correctional and services to Hawaii’s communities with professionalism, integrity, and fairness. With increasingly aging and obsolete correctional facilities, DCR is proposing to modernize existing facilities where feasible and construct new institutions to replace others where necessary. Among the priority projects is the replacement of the Oahu Community Correctional Center (OCCC). A new OCCC will employ the latest cost-savings technologies, allow DCR to better meet the needs of inmates, and provide continued safety and security for inmates, staff and the public. With the planning process well underway, this page will be regularly updated with current information regarding the OCCC project, public outreach activities, milestones and accomplishments.
