 Chula Vista City Jail
The
Chula Vista Police Department operates its own City Jail, currently
the only city in the county to do so.
This
48-bed Type II facility generally houses arrestees until their court
arraignment. Additionally, State Inmates enrolled in the “In Custody
Drug Treatment Program” are also housed (see below). Staff members
include the Jail Commander, Police Service
Officers, and Senior Office Specialist.
Housing
arrestees at this facility keeps officers on patrol,
instead of removing them from service for transport to County
detention facilities. The on-site jail also gives investigators immediate access to arrestees.
In
Custody Drug Treatment Program (ICDTP)
Parolees
who are having trouble in the community, or in the parole office STAR class,
can begin their recovery while still on parole in the In Custody Drug
Treatment Program (ICDTP).
ICDTP
classes are held in specially designated jail facilities while
parolees serve 60 days. After the completion of the in-custody phase
of the program, participants are required to complete 30 days of
residential aftercare in the community. In addition, 60 days of
voluntary aftercare is provided upon release from ICDTP.
This
program gives parolees an understanding of substance abuse and
recovery by using a curriculum that includes The Cycle of Addiction, The
Process of Recovery, Stress and Anger Management, Relationships,
Relapse Prevention, and Successful Transition Planning.
General information regarding the jail is available by calling:
