Forcht-Wade Correctional Center was a state prison facility in Louisiana. The prison, operated by the Louisiana Department of Public Safety & Corrections, was located in the Eddie D. Jones Nature Park in Keithville. The prison also controlled the Dr. Martin Forcht Jr. Clinical Treatment Unit, a facility located near Spring Ridge. ==History== The Caddo Parish commission donated the site of Forcht-Wade to the State of Louisiana in 1977. The donation included some structures that existed on the site. The contract involved in the handover states that if the state does not use the facility within a two-year period, the Parish will receive the land back.〔 Forcht-Wade was originally a full prison,〔Staggs, Sean. "(Forcht Wade Correctional Center to close this summer )." ''KSLA-TV''. February 9, 2012. Retrieved on October 25, 2012.〕 and it served as a division of the David Wade Correctional Center.〔"(Adult boot camp teaches discipline )." ''The Advocate''. June 23, 2002.

The State of Louisiana implemented a $6 million renovation program so the facility could become a facility for the chronically ill and geriatric and house around 600 prisoners.〔 By 2002 the Legislature of Louisiana added a boot camp program to the prison.〔 In 2009 the State of Louisiana announced that it was converting Forcht-Wade into a substance abuse treatment center for men. Therefore Elayn Hunt Correctional Center would begin to process incoming male prisoners from all areas of the state. Hunt also expanded its nursing unit to accommodate prisoners from Forcht-Wade's nursing unit.〔Welborn, Vickie. "(Forcht Wade converting to substance abuse treatment facility )."

"EHCC will handle the offender intake process for the entire state and will open its skilled nursing unit to meet the critical medical and mental health needs of the state offender population."〕 In 2010 Forcht-Wade became a substance abuse treatment center, with a capacity of 500 prisoners.〔 During that year, a new chapel was built at Forcht-Wade.〔"(Prison chapel frame goes up; more donations needed )."
