The Worcester County Sheriff’s Office is responsible for the control, custody, and care of both pre-trial detainees and inmates that have been sentenced to two and a half years or less.
The institution dates back over 300 years to when the first location was opened in the 1860s in Worcester’s Lincoln Square. Today’s West Boylston facility was opened in 1973 and has the capacity to house over 1,000 inmates and a staff of over 600 correctional officers and civilians.
