Since 1984, GEO has developed successful public-private partnerships with government agencies around the globe. Our success is a testament to the quality of our services and the innovative nature of our diversified services. We value our partnership with government agencies and the communities in which we operate.
The GEO Group is committed to providing leading, evidence-based rehabilitation programs to individuals while in-custody and post-release into the community through the "GEO Continuum of Care®." GEO's diversified services platform provides unique capabilities for the delivery of educational and vocational programs, cognitive behavioral and substance abuse treatment, and faith-based services across the entire corrections spectrum. The GEO Continuum of Care is enhanced in-custody offender rehabilitation programming, including cognitive behavioral treatment, integrated with post–release support services.
GEO’s facilities are often the largest employer within their community. GEO’s facilities not only benefit the community with direct employment opportunities, but can also create additional job growth through employment of local vendors supplying various goods and services, payment of utility services, and infrastructure enhancements.
The GEO Group takes pride in being a good community partner. We build strong partnerships with the local non-profit organizations, schools, local businesses, and our employees. Not only do we pride ourselves on the opportunities we make available to the members of those communities, but we also seek out ways to engage our communities directly as a partner and a citizen. We care about the communities we serve and we have a shared responsibility to make a difference in their lives and their children’s lives.
GEO provides complementary, turnkey solutions for numerous government partners worldwide across a spectrum of diversified correctional and community reentry services. From the development of state-of-the-art facilities and the provision of management services and evidence-based rehabilitation to the post-release reintegration and supervision of individuals in the community, GEO offers fully diversified, cost-effective services that deliver enhanced quality and improved outcomes.
The GEO Group, Inc. is fully committed to operating our facilities and programs at the highest level, providing safe, secure and humane surroundings for our staff, those in our custody and care and the communities in which we operate. In order to provide that consistent level of quality, GEO operates pursuant to and in compliance with a variety of national accreditation and certification standards and the requirements of our government partners.
In addition to our focus on secure design concepts and innovative technology, GEO is committed to sustainable building practices that incorporate energy efficiency and mitigate environmental impact. GEO’s in-house team of design and construction experts coordinate all aspects of facility development. All new facilities are designed to the LEED Green Building System’s silver standards (U.S. Green Building Council’s Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design). As a facility makes the conversion to a green operational philosophy, operating costs are lowered and emissions are reduced.
