Alcorn County Regional Facility Overview
MDOC lists Alcorn County Regional Correctional Facility as a Regional facility in Corinth. The facility's own website uses Alcorn County Correctional Facility and states that it is also known as the Alcorn County Jail. The operator context is mixed by design: MDOC identifies the regional facility, while the Alcorn County sheriff page says the sheriff's administrative duties include serving as county jailor and protecting prisoners.
The facility holds state offenders in a county or regional correctional setting and also provides county-jail style public services. Its public pages include visitation by zone, inmate accounts, PREA reporting, directions, a mail format, programs, a warden page, and search links that route to MDOC tools rather than a separate Alcorn County roster.
Alcorn County Facility Population
The most specific capacity and population figures in the research come from MDOC's May 2025 Daily Inmate Population PDF. That report listed Alcorn County regional capacity at 300 and population at about 295 / 294 in the regional-facility table. The MDOC facility detail page gives type and contact information but does not publish a security level, housing-unit design, medical unit description, or a live population dashboard.
The MDOC facility page confirms the official regional-facility listing.
That state listing is why MDOC search belongs in the lookup process for sentenced and regional custody at this facility.
Lookup Alcorn County Regional Inmates
The facility website links to MDOC Inmate Search and MDOC Parolee Search, not a local current-inmate roster. For a person booked very recently, call the facility or sheriff because the state locator may not reflect a same-day local custody event. For sentenced state offenders, search MDOC by name or ID number and confirm whether the returned facility is Alcorn County Regional Correctional Facility.
- Call the facility first for same-day local custody, visiting eligibility, mail format, or deposit questions.
- Use MDOC Inmate Search for sentenced Mississippi offenders and regional-facility placement.
- Search by MDOC ID when available, or by first and last name when the ID is unknown.
- Confirm the result shows the correct person, status, and facility before sending money or planning a visit.
- Use VINELink for custody notifications after the correct custody system is identified.
Alcorn County Facility Contact
Use the facility contact numbers for current custody, facility rules, visiting, mail, accounts, and PREA routing. Use the sheriff when the question is tied to a sheriff arrest, jail docket, warrant, or booking authority. The offices are close together on South Harper Road, so verify the exact office before going in person.

Alcorn County Visitor Rules
Visitors are subject to search of their person, vehicle, property, and all items while on facility grounds. Contraband includes alcohol, tobacco, controlled substances, cameras, tape recorders, civilian clothing, tools, weapons, ammunition, explosives, and hacksaw blades. The visitation page cites MDOC policy and Mississippi state statutes 47-5-191 through 47-5-195.
- Men must wear shirts, shoes, and underwear, with no tank tops, sleeveless tops, bare midriffs, short cutoffs, or pants below the hip line.
- Women must avoid see-through clothing, tank tops, sleeveless tops, bare midriffs, short cutoffs, and slits above knee level when seated.
- Jewelry is limited, with exceptions such as wedding rings, religious medallions, and medical alert bracelets.
- Brief contact is allowed at entry and exit, but sexual contact, prolonged kissing, and lap sitting are not allowed except for children under 12.
Alcorn County Facility Mail Money
Money orders, web deposits, lobby kiosk deposits, phone service, and mail do not all use the same address or vendor. The inmate-account page states that postal money orders should be filled out completely to Alcorn CCF with the inmate name, pod number, bed number, and the South Harper Road facility address. The contact page lists a separate mail-processing format in Bossier City, Louisiana.
| Service | Instruction | Fee located? |
|---|---|---|
| Postal money order | Alcorn CCF, inmate name, pod number and bed number, 2839 South Harper Road, Corinth, MS 38851 | No fee published |
| Online deposits | Tiger Commissary, which lists Alcorn Regional Correctional in Corinth | No fee captured |
| Lobby kiosk | Kiosk machine in the facility lobby | No fee published |
| Phone account | ConnectNetwork AdvancePay Phone service | Account required; pricing not captured |
| Inmate mail | John Doe, CTC PIN, Alcorn County Jail, 4506 Marlena St Unit 42, Bossier City, LA 71111 | Not applicable |
The facility inmate-accounts page shows the deposit paths.
Keep the money-order address and mail-processing address separate because the facility source lists them for different purposes.
Alcorn County Facility Programs
The facility homepage lists local programs that are more specific than generic jail services. Program areas include art, discipleship classes, pre-release, literacy, short term and long term A&D, ABE/HISET, NCCER, Northeast Mississippi Community College classes, forklift operator certification, and welding. The site also describes GED, adult basic education, computer, anger management, financial management, and substance-abuse programs.
The chaplain page names Tim Woods and describes a ministry program intended to give people in custody the opportunity to grow emotionally and spiritually through biblical teaching. These programs do not change custody status, but they help explain the regional facility's role beyond booking and detention.
Alcorn County PREA Reporting
The facility PREA page says the facility has zero tolerance for sexual misconduct and will investigate allegations thoroughly, promptly, and objectively. Reporting channels include calling the facility at 662-286-7195, calling the hotline at 1-800-527-7233, writing to ACCF at 2839 South Harper Road, Corinth, MS 38834, and contacting named personnel on the PREA page.
Note: Confirm custody, housing, and visitor approval with the facility before traveling or sending money.
