Federal, State, and Local Partnerships
Federal, State, and Local Partnerships
Over the past 25 years, GEO has established itself as a world leader in the delivery of private correctional and detention management, community residential re-entry services as well as behavioral and mental health services to federal, state and local government agencies around the globe. Our success is contributed to our comprehensive quality of service, innovative operational solutions, and efficient cost-effective operations.
Federal
GEO began its partnership with the Federal government in 1987 with the award of the Aurora ICE Processing Center for the Immigration and Customs Enforcement Agency. Since then, GEO has provided operations and management solutions for federal corrections/detention agencies in the United States. Following the acquisition of Cornell Companies, GEO is now the largest provider of correctional services to the federal government.

State
Since our first state contract with California in 1987, GEO has become a practical alternative solution for numerous state agencies across the nation in an effort to help ease budget deficits and overcrowding concerns. This is accomplished through GEO’s provision of customized correctional solutions which includes, but is not limited to, private financing, in-state and out-of-state bed management, and fixed-fee contracting.

Local
Similar to our federal and state partnerships, local government correction agencies realize the same advantages when they partner with GEO. By participating in a collaborative partnership, GEO can not only provide relief to the local government’s budget constraints and facility overcrowding, but stimulate the local economy; through job creation, payment of sales and/or property taxes, and ultimately a reallocation of budgetary capital.
