Welcome to the Hudson County Department of Corrections

The Hudson County Correctional Center is located at 35 Hackensack Ave in South Kearny NJ.
The Hudson County Correctional Centers objective is to maintain security, custody and control of all incarcerated persons and to fairly and impartially supervise the day-to-day movements of the inmate population and ensure they receive appropriate food, clothing, shelter, and medical care.

We also provide rehabilitative services and programs to try to ensure the success of those incarcerated upon their return to society. Custody Staff must also ensure that inmates observe the rules and regulations of the facility and interact appropriately with staff members and other inmates.
