Locate Wisconsin Resource Center Inmates

Wisconsin Resource Center Overview

Wisconsin Resource Center is managed by the Wisconsin Department of Health Services in partnership with the Wisconsin Department of Corrections. The official DHS page describes WRC as a facility that provides specialized treatment services to state prison residents referred from DOC. Its mission is different from the Winnebago County Jail. It is not a place for ordinary local arrest booking, public jail intake, or county work release.

The official address is 1505 North Drive, Winnebago, WI 54985, and the phone number captured in the research is 920-426-4310. DHS says the center was established in 1983. The page also says WRC is accredited by the National Commission on Correctional Health Care and was named NCCHC's 2022 R. Scott Chavez Facility of the Year. The captured source did not publish a public capacity figure, roster, mail rules, or visit schedule.

Wisconsin Resource Center Lookup

Because WRC residents are referred from DOC, the first public lookup path is the Wisconsin DOC Offender Locator. DOC's general information says its search tool may be used to locate a person in DOC care housed within a DOC facility. It also warns that city and county jails are administered separately. That warning is important here because the Winnebago County Jail roster and WRC are separate systems.

1. Search the Wisconsin DOC locator by DOC number when known.
2. If the number is not known, search by first and last name and narrow with birth year or date of birth if the interface allows it.
3. Review the public facility or status field to see whether WRC or another DOC location is shown.
4. If no DOC result appears, check the Winnebago County Jail current list because the person may still be in county custody.
5. For case filings, hearings, and sentencing records, search WCCA rather than the WRC page.
6. For facility-specific treatment or contact procedures, use official DHS/WRC contact information.

The county jail media blotter should not be used as a WRC roster. It can show a DOC arresting-agency code or local booking event, but it is not a treatment-center resident list.

Wisconsin Resource Center Contact

The captured DHS source gives a direct public address and phone number. It does not publish a public resident roster, capacity table, visitor schedule, or detailed mail rules in the captured lines. When a record or procedure is not public on the DHS page, use official WRC, DOC, court, or legal channels rather than assuming county jail rules apply.

WRC is near other Winnebago County correctional facilities, but location alone does not merge the records systems. Oshkosh Correctional Institution, Drug Abuse Correctional Center, Winnebago Correctional Center, the county jail, and WRC all require facility-specific lookup and contact paths.

Wisconsin Resource Center Population

The captured official research did not locate a WRC capacity number. It did locate the facility type and population served: state prison residents who need specialized mental-health treatment and are referred from DOC. That population should be described carefully. WRC is not a general county inmate population page, not a federal prison, and not a public jail intake center.

Visiting Wisconsin Resource Center

The captured DHS page did not provide a detailed public visiting schedule. That means the page should not invent day, hour, vendor, approval, or parking rules for WRC. For DOC prisons in the same county, OSCI and WCC have facility-specific visitation details. WRC is different because it is a specialized treatment facility managed through DHS and DOC.

This is a place where restraint improves accuracy. A county jail visitor rule, such as video-only social visitation through GettingOut, should not be copied onto a WRC page unless WRC publishes that rule.

Wisconsin Resource Center Mail and Money

The research did not capture WRC-specific public mail or money rules. For general DOC custody, the state money page says inmate funds are received through Access Corrections Secure Deposit and CashPayToday, and DOC warns not to send funds directly to the correctional facility. That is general DOC information, not a WRC-specific mailroom instruction.

Before sending mail, money, or property, confirm the current WRC procedure. Treatment-center custody can involve rules that differ from a prison unit or a county jail housing unit, especially when clinical security needs affect contact rules.

Wisconsin Resource Center Records

WRC records may involve DHS, DOC, court, and medical-treatment boundaries. Public custody lookup starts with DOC, but treatment records are not the same as jail roster data. Wisconsin public-records law supports access to government records, yet medical, mental-health, safety, juvenile, sealed, expunged, and treatment details may be restricted or redacted. For court outcomes tied to a Winnebago County case, use WCCA and the Clerk of Courts.

The official Wisconsin Resource Center DHS page is the subject match for this facility.

The DHS page identifies WRC as specialized treatment custody rather than a sheriff roster, which is the key distinction for any search.

Wisconsin Resource Center vs Jail

Winnebago County has several correctional and treatment facilities close together. That creates wrong-system searches. A person in the county jail may be on the sheriff roster. A sentenced state prisoner may be in the DOC locator. A referred resident at WRC may need DOC locator and DHS/WRC contact paths. Federal and ICE custody require separate federal systems.
