Wapato's "Percent For Art"
Funds
The Wapato Facility is currently not housing detainees and the site
is not generally open to the public. In cooperation with Multnomah
County, the Sheriff’s Office is working hard to find the resources
to open the facility and begin housing inmates to support the local
public safety system.
When
the facility opens, the facility’s capacity will be 525 and
will house medium security inmates. Operationally, the building
is able to support numerous secure programs intended to help meet
the needs of inmates to reintegrate themselves back into the community
upon their release.
