Maplehurst Correctional Complex (also known colloquially as the Milton Hilton)〔(Locktalk ) - OPSEU Publications, March 30, 2001〕 is a correctional facility located in Milton, Ontario for males 18 years of age and older. It is a combined maximum security detention centre for remanded prisoners, and medium/maximum correctional centre for offenders sentenced to less than two years. Maplehurst Correctional Complex was built in the mid-1970s as a replacement for several older facilities including the Milton Jail, Halton County Jail, and the Mimico Correctional Centre, although the latter ultimately remained open. It was expanded in the late 1980s and again in the early 21st century.〔(CanadianCorrections.com )〕 At the official opening of the $89 million modernization in 2001, the Ontario government described the complex as the first facility in Ontario's correctional system to feature a new design with pods:〔(Modernizing the System ) - Ministry of Community Safety and Correctional Services〕 self-contained, 192-bed units where inmates spend their day - including program areas and an outdoor space for exercise.〔(Modern provincial jails to improve public safety ) - News Release - Government of Ontario - March 15, 2001〕 The complex is the size of 100 football fields and was the first of so-called "super-jails" in Ontario. General Population, Protective Population and Segregation/Hospital units are all housed within the facility.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 Correctional Services )〕 It shares its location with the adjacent Vanier Centre for Women, a 333-bed medium and maximum security facility for remanded and sentenced female offenders. The prison provides a variety of remedial programs, including life skills, addictions, anger management and Alcoholics Anonymous. == See also == * List of correctional facilities in Ontario 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Maplehurst Correctional Complex」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
