Women's Pre-Release Center

The Middlesex Sheriff's Office Women's Pre-Release Center was established in 2021 to help prepare women to make a successful return to the community at the conclusion of their sentences with a particular focus on family engagement and reunification.

The center is situated in a standalone building on the grounds of the Middlesex Jail and House of Correction and includes private bedrooms, as well as spaces for programming and face-to-face meetings with family and children.

In addition to specific programs available to residents, individuals also have access to other programs and services available at the Middlesex Jail and House of Correction including:

• The MSO's nationally recognized Medication Assisted Treatment And Directed Opioid Recovery (MATADOR) Program.
• Educational programs – including college courses.
• Reentry planning – including enrollment in MassHealth, housing assistance, and voter registration.
• Eligibility for consideration in the MSO's Electronic Monitoring Program and work release initiatives.
