New Hampshire State Prison for Women
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coordinates: New Hampshire State Prison for Women is the only women's prison in the U.S. state of New Hampshire. The facility is located in Goffstown, Hillsborough County.
Opened by New Hampshire Department of Corrections in 1989, it has since 2004 been the only state prison housing female prisoners. It houses maximum, medium, and minimum security prisoners and overflow prisoners from the county prisons, which often lack appropriate facilities for women. The prison is a leased facility with a maximum capacity of 105 prisoners.
