About the Kotzebue Regional Jail
The Kotzebue Regional Jail in Alaska is the only jail in the state that holds inmates who have served short sentences. It has been operational since 1976 and houses inmates from all of Northwest Arctic Borough County under the governorship of the Alaska Sherriff. The jail has an official capacity of 12 prisoners and receives about 2235 bookings yearly. It was closed in June 2003 after the state refused to increase funding for the jail, but the Alaska State Troopers resumed transporting prisoners to the Kotzebue courthouse for arraignment in October 2003. The Department of Corrections is currently working to determine an equitable funding formula for Kotzebue Regional Jail as well as other community jails in the state. Inmates are allowed two 45-minute onsite video visits each week, as well as two visits of 30 minutes each at the facility, and potentially no limit on the number of visits when using the home based video visitation service. Inmates can also send and receive mail from approved third-party vendors and have access to a law library from Monday to Friday. Money can be sent into an inmate’s commissary account at the jail. Visitation hours vary depending on the gender of the inmate and bail can be posted by anyone over 18 with a valid government-issued photo ID. Prisoners are entitled to adequate food, clothing, shelter and medical care under humane conditions of confinement. The Kotzebue Regional Jail is located at 258D Fourth Avenue, Kotzebue, AK 99752, and can be reached at 907-442-3351.
