About Us

The St. Lawrence County Correctional Facility serves the public with an efficiently operated, secure and humane correction system. It uses innovation and technology in many ways, such as offering a credit card bail system to inmates and a notification system for crime victims to check on the release of prisoners. The Correctional Facility is headed by Sheriff Kevin M. Wells. Located in Canton, New York, the jail consists of:

• inmates (16 years or older) accused of a crime or awaiting sentencing and

• sentenced inmates who are committed to a term up to one year
