Union City Community Corrections Center Overview
Union City Community Corrections Center is operated by the Oklahoma Department of Corrections at 700 North Highway 81 in Union City. The August 2025 ODOC fact sheet describes it as a community-corrections facility with work release, prisoner public works, education, treatment, CareerTech, and reentry programming. It is physically in Canadian County, but it serves the state prison system rather than the Canadian County Sheriff's Office.
That agency boundary is the most important point for anyone searching for a person. A Canadian County arrest may begin at the county jail in El Reno, but once a person is sentenced to DOC, placement is controlled by ODOC classification. Sentencing in Canadian County District Court does not mean the person will go to Union City. Conversely, people at Union City may have been sentenced from other Oklahoma counties and may have no current Canadian County jail record.
For state-custody lookup, the relevant public search is the Oklahoma DOC Offender Lookup. The ODOC lookup page is shown below as the official search channel for Union City Community Corrections Center.
The screenshot is useful because it separates the state offender search from the Canadian County jail roster, which only covers local jail custody.
Union City Community Corrections Center Capacity and Population
The ODOC Union City fact sheet dated August 2025 gives the facility's capacity as 228 inmates. The same source says the building is about 45,270 square feet on 20 acres. A Prison Policy Initiative correctional populations table identified a historical Union City Community Center count of 212 on June 30, 2012, but that is historical context, not a current headcount. The strongest current facility number in the research is the ODOC capacity figure.
The fact sheet also provides a program participation figure: as of December 2023, 16 inmates were assigned to work for surrounding city, county, or state agencies under the Prisoner Public Works Program. That number is not the total facility population. It is a count tied to one public-works assignment program, so it should not be read as capacity or headcount.
| Measure | Figure | Source / Date |
|---|---|---|
| Capacity | 228 inmates | ODOC UCCCC fact sheet, August 2025 |
| Public works assignments | 16 inmates | ODOC fact sheet, as of December 2023 |
| Facility size | About 45,270 square feet on 20 acres | ODOC UCCCC fact sheet |
| Historical count | 212 | PPI table, June 30, 2012 |
How to Look Up an Inmate at Union City Community Corrections Center
Use OK Offender Lookup for Union City Community Corrections Center. The Canadian County inmate search is not the correct search for this facility because UCCCC is state DOC custody. The DOC lookup is designed for people under Oklahoma Department of Corrections custody or supervision, and it may show current facility placement, abbreviated offense or sentence information, and related status details. ODOC warns that its online information is abbreviated and not an exact sentence explanation.
- Open OK Offender Lookup.
- Search with the person's name or ODOC number if known.
- Review the result for current facility placement and confirm whether it lists Union City Community Corrections Center.
- If the person was only recently arrested in Canadian County, search the county jail roster first; if the person has been sentenced and transferred, use ODOC.
Do not assume a missing Canadian County Jail roster entry means release. A sentenced person may have left county custody and entered DOC custody. The reverse is also true: a person in the sheriff's jail roster has not necessarily reached DOC placement. VINE/VINELink may also be useful for custody notifications, but the official custody search for this facility remains ODOC's offender lookup.
Union City Community Corrections Center Address and Contact
The facility's direct address and phone come from the ODOC facility map and UCCCC fact sheet. Use the facility phone for local visit questions, facility-specific contact, and practical questions after confirming that the person is actually assigned there. Use ODOC central channels for statewide policy, public records, offender lookup, and DOC procedures that are not facility-specific.

Visiting Someone at Union City Community Corrections Center
Visitation at Union City follows ODOC's statewide visitation process. ODOC says all visits must be scheduled and no walk-ins are accepted. Schedule requests must be received by Wednesday at 1:00 p.m. for the visit period. No changes or additions are allowed after that deadline unless facility administration authorizes them. Visitors 18 and older are subject to background checks, and approval can take up to 90 days.
Because this is a DOC facility, visitors should not rely on Canadian County Jail's Prodigy remote visitation rules. The county jail's remote-visit blackout windows, former-inmate rule, and attorney scheduling numbers belong to the sheriff jail in El Reno. For Union City, confirm approval status, scheduling, identification requirements, and visit availability through ODOC visitation information and the facility before traveling.
| Requirement | Schedule / Rule | Type |
|---|---|---|
| Scheduling | Required before the visit | ODOC visitation |
| Walk-ins | Not accepted | ODOC visitation |
| Request deadline | Wednesday by 1:00 p.m. | Scheduled visit request |
| Visitor approval | Background checks for visitors 18 and older; approval may take up to 90 days | ODOC approval process |
Mail, Phone, and Money at Union City Community Corrections Center
Union City uses ODOC mail and money systems, not Canadian County Jail's Prodigy and JailATM process. ODOC offender-info materials say letters to inmates should include the inmate's name and ODOC number and be addressed to the digital processing center for letters. Non-privileged mail is subject to inspection or reading. Legal mail, books, and approved publications still follow facility rules rather than ordinary digital letter processing.
ODOC communications and deposits can involve Securus outbound numbers, Access Corrections, JPay, or related DOC-approved channels depending on the service and facility. The research did not identify a facility-specific fee table for Union City, so no fee amounts are listed here. Confirm the currently approved route with ODOC before sending funds or opening an account, especially if the person recently transferred from county jail and still has local commissary money or local jail contacts.
| Service | Provider / Detail |
|---|---|
| Mail Address | Use inmate name and ODOC number; ODOC digital processing center handles ordinary letters |
| Phone / Communications | ODOC-approved Securus or related communication channels |
| Money Deposit | ODOC-approved Access Corrections, JPay, Securus-related, or current DOC channel; confirm before sending |
Admission and Classification at Union City Community Corrections Center
Union City is not a street-arrest booking site like Canadian County Jail. People arrive through DOC custody after sentencing, classification, and placement decisions. A person arrested in Canadian County may be booked at the jail, appear in court, and later receive a DOC sentence. Once that transfer occurs, the county roster stops being the primary lookup tool and DOC records become the custody source.
Community corrections centers are designed for a different custody stage than county jail intake. ODOC offender-info materials describe community corrections as balancing public safety with reintegration services, sanctions, work release, and public work projects. That means the facility's daily structure is tied to DOC classification, program eligibility, employment or work assignment approval, and reentry planning, not to initial arrest processing.
About Union City Community Corrections Center
Union City's facility history is unusually specific in ODOC's fact sheet. The building was originally built for Avalon Corporation in 1999 as a high-security juvenile facility. UCCCC officially opened in 2005, and ODOC purchased the facility in 2006 after determining it was best suited to house community-level inmates. The facility sits on about 20 acres and is listed at 700 North Highway 81 in Union City.
Programs are central to the facility's purpose. ODOC lists literacy, Pre-HSE, HSE diplomas, substance-abuse treatment, Alcoholics Anonymous meetings, Cognitive Behavioral Intervention for Substance Abuse, Thinking for a Change, Anger Management, Associates for Success, and Victims Impact. CareerTech offerings include licensed trades leading toward HVAC, electrical, and plumbing licensing, plus a CDL program. Reentry options include reentry classes, transitional workshops, Transitions to Community, Building Social Network, Unlock Your Thinking, Financial Literacy, and work release.
The prisoner public works and work-release details should be read as DOC program information, not as a public roster. Public works placed 16 inmates with surrounding city, county, or state agencies as of December 2023, while work release allows approved inmates to earn salary, build skills, improve work habits, and possibly move toward employment after discharge. Availability depends on DOC status, eligibility, and facility decisions.
Note: Confirm current placement and visit approval through ODOC before traveling to Union City.
