Chateaugay Correctional Facility

Chateaugay Correctional Facility (ASACTC) was a medium-security prison[1] and state alcohol and substance abuse Correctional Treatment Center[citation needed] in Franklin County, New York, United States.

[1] The prison encompassed about 99 acres and 30 structures on-site, mostly single-story metal buildings on concrete slab foundations.

[3] What used to be known as an ASACTC correctional program has now turned into a facility for repeat parole violators as of the mid-2000s.

[citation needed] Before it closed in 2014, most of the inmates in the prison were there for violating parole, doing short sentences.

[1][7] Local officials attempted to negotiate with the state to have the prison redeployed as a juvenile detention facility in 2017 instead of Adirondack Correctional Facility, which was at the time being considered for becoming a juvenile detention site, but did not succeed.
