Prison Description

The Halawa Correctional Facility (HCF) is made up of two separate facilities: a special needs facility and a medium security facility. The special needs facility opened in 1962, as the City and County of Honolulu’s Halawa Jail, and transferred to the State of Hawaii in 1977. The special needs facility houses maximum and closed custody inmates, inmates with severe/chronic mental illness who cannot be placed in the general population and inmates who require protective custody. The medium security facility opened in 1987, and is the newest and largest prison facility in the State of Hawaii. The medium security facility houses male sentenced felons. In order to mitigate overcrowding, there are about 1,400 male inmates from HCF that are housed in one out-of-state contracted facility in Arizona.

Hello,
Me and my mom will be visiting my brother this December. But I’m not sure how to do it, can we walk in and ask to see him? or is there anything? does the inmate have to tell them that someone will be visiting?

Aloha my brother a deaf mute inmate was transported back to Halawa from Arizona I was able to visit him in AZ and put money on his books. So I came to Halawa on 10/12/2019 to visit was told that I could not visit him because I was not on his visiting list? Can I set up a special visit since he is deaf??
