Barbara A. Ester Unit is a correctional facility of the Arkansas Department of Correction (ADC), located in Pine Bluff, Arkansas.

[1] In December 2016, the ADC announced that it would move about 175 prisoners from the Pulaski County Jail's Wrightsville Annex to the Ester Unit; the Wrightsville Annex held prisoners soon to be released and parole violators, and the ADC stated it did not have the necessary funds to operate both Ester and the Wrightsville annex.

The Ester Unit's construction was scheduled to finish in late March 2017.

[3] The Advanced Principles and Applications for Life (APAL) Program grew to include the Barbara Ester Unit in 2017, and provides religious services.
