- Appleton prison seeks job applicants amid renewed federal interest in facility for immigrant detentions
Appleton’s private prison, Prairie Correctional Facility, is seeking job applicants for warden and security roles as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security considers the facility for immigration detention. CoreCivic, the prison’s owner, has posted job openings but has not finalized a contract with the agency. The facility, closed since 2010, has been identified as meeting ICE requirements for detaining immigrants.
