North Dakota introduces new “mini prisons”
North Dakota’s prison population is on the rise—and fast. With inmate numbers expected to nearly triple by 2026, the state is taking a proactive step: building four smaller correctional facilities to ease the pressure. These “mini prisons” aren’t just about adding beds—they’re designed to support rehabilitation and re-entry, tailored to individual case plans. Led by Corrections Director Colby Braun, the initiative aims to deliver services where they’re needed most, creating a more flexible, responsive approach to a growing statewide challenge.
