Warren County Regional Jail

Warren County Regional Jail Dedicated to serving the community. The main jail was completed in April of 1987. It was recently renovated again allowing for an additional 12 inmates.

When it was opened 78 inmates were moved from the old jail located at 429 East 10th St. In 1998 we opened the 144 bed Class D building which houses work release inmates and inmates who are on the Class D program. In 2000 we opened another 160 bed addition which houses the females and Federal inmates. In 2003 our old juvenile section of the facility was transformed into a female Class D program. Th

ere has been a change in the Kentucky Jail Standards which has allowed us to add additional beds in selected cells which brings our total beds to 562.

On Wednesday, May 20th, 2026, the Warren County Regional Jail proudly hosted another successful Pre-Release Class.

Since its establishment in 2017, the Pre-Release Program has continued to make a meaningful impact by helping individuals prepare for a successful transition back into the community. Designed for those within two months of release, the program provides participants with the opportunity to create individualized reentry plans while connecting them with valuable local resources and support services.

We are incredibly grateful for the agencies, organizations, and individuals who continue to invest their time, knowledge, and compassion into this important effort:

Probation and Parole
Thomas West
Shawn Wilkerson
Brent Kirby
Amanda Dettman
Goodwill
Team Kentucky
Southern Kentucky Community and Technical College (SKYCTC)
Passport Health
United Health
Journey Pure
Life Skills/Park Place
Community Action
Fuller Life Counseling
Hope Harbor
Workforce Development
Ohio River Health Center
Community Partners for Recovery
Behavioral Health Group

Because of these strong partnerships, we are able to provide hope, guidance, and practical support to individuals working toward a fresh start. Together, we continue building pathways to successful reentry and brighter futures for those we serve.
