For FY24 (July 2023 - June 2024), the number of individuals incarcerated in the out-of-state prison remained stable, with an average of 123 individuals per month. This represents a modest increase compared to FY23, which had an average of 118 individuals per month.

Despite a slight uptick in new arrivals early in FY24, the overall trend aligns with regular out-of-state population patterns: an initial increase followed by a gradual decline as individuals are transferred back to Vermont for programming or as they approach their release dates. Thus, the FY24 numbers remain within the same range as the previous fiscal year, reflecting overall stability in the out-of-state prison population.

Out-of-state incarcerated individuals are currently residing at Tallahatchie County Correctional Facility (TCCF), which is a medium security correctional facility located in Tutwiler, Mississippi approximately 1,374 miles from Vermont's nearest in-state facility, Southern State Correctional Facility in Springfield, VT. 

The Vermont DOC is working to return as many out-of-state incarcerated individuals as possible to in-state facilities (as in-state housing capacity allows).
