The Montgomery Processing Center (MPC) celebrated its five-year anniversary in October 2023.
In April 2017, The GEO Group was awarded a new contract with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement for the development and operation of a 1,000-bed processing center. The facility opened and began detainee intake in October 2018. MPC houses adult male and female detainees for ICE and provides comprehensive 24-hour medical, dental, and mental health services, food service, and laundry. The approximately 400,000 square foot center features a precast parking garage, on-site administrative office and support spaces, programming spaces and classrooms, outdoor recreation including three artificial turf soccer fields, day rooms with large TVs, a law library with LexisNexis computer stations, and an employee training room.
Staff enjoyed a week-long celebration of fun, food, and prizes that culminated at our Annual Facility Picnic. One highlight of the week was an on-site food truck that provided a sweet treat in the form of funnel cakes. MPC celebrated with approximately 70 original staff members who also received their five-year service awards throughout this past year.
