This facility is for adult inmates.

The inmates housed at Lanesboro CI located at 552 Prison Camp Rd in Polkton, NC are placed according to their custody level (determined by a number of factors including the past criminal history and the length of their sentence). There are ample educational and vocational training programs for all inmates, especially ones that show a willingness to learn new things that will prepare them for a better life when they are released. The mission is to promote and prepare the offender to leave in better shape than when they arrived, giving them the best chance to never come back and thus lower the state's recidivism rate.

Lanesboro Correctional Institution is a multi-custody prison facility in Polkton, North Carolina and houses approximately 1,800 inmates in close, medium and minimum custody.
