St. Anthony Work Camp Resident Lookup

St. Anthony Work Camp Overview

St. Anthony Work Camp, often abbreviated SAWC, is operated by the Idaho Department of Correction. IDOC lists the facility at 125 N. 8th West, St. Anthony, ID 83445, with phone 208-624-3775 and email sawc@idoc.idaho.gov. The facility page identifies Tyrell Davis as warden and describes the camp as a 400-bed work camp for minimum- and community-custody men. Fremont County's separate local jail remains under Fremont County Sheriff's Office authority.

SAWC is not Fremont County Jail. It does not hold ordinary pretrial arrestees for the Fremont County Sheriff's Office. It holds sentenced adult men under IDOC jurisdiction who are assigned to a work-camp setting. That distinction controls the search path, visitation rules, mail rules, money deposits, commissary, and record source. For local jail records, Fremont County routes users through the sheriff, VINELink, and the county JustFOIA request portal.

IDOC says residents at SAWC have opportunities for full-time constructive paid employment with government agencies, nonprofit organizations, and private employers. The program is intended to build work habits and marketable skills while giving residents a financial resource for present and future needs.

St. Anthony Work Camp Capacity and Population

IDOC's facility page lists St. Anthony Work Camp as a 400-bed facility. IDOC's FY2024 Incarcerated Population Report gives point-in-time facility counts: 389 termers, 0 riders, and 0 parole violators on June 30, 2024. The same report listed June 30, 2023 at 391 termers, 0 riders, and 1 parole violator. These are state prison/work-camp counts physically located in Fremont County, not county jail population numbers. The county jail's separate local capacity source is the Idaho Sheriffs' Association directory, not the SAWC population report.

How to Look Up a Resident at St. Anthony Work Camp

Use the Idaho Department of Correction Resident/Client Search for St. Anthony Work Camp. IDOC says the database covers people under IDOC jurisdiction, including incarcerated residents, probation, and parole. It updates daily, but IDOC warns that location, status, scheduled termination date, and other information can change quickly.

1. Open IDOC Resident/Client Search.
2. Search by Last Name or IDOC Number. Last name or IDOC number is required.
3. Use First Name as an optional narrowing field when the name is common.
4. For partial searches, IDOC accepts at least the first two characters of last name or first three digits of the IDOC number.
5. Open the result and confirm whether the current facility is St. Anthony Work Camp.

The IDOC Resident/Client Search screenshot below is a successful manifest image. It matches SAWC because SAWC is a state prison/work camp, not a county jail.

If a person was just arrested in Fremont County, start with VINELink and the sheriff instead. If the person was sentenced and moved into IDOC custody, the IDOC search is the correct lookup route. For filed local charges, the Fremont County Magistrate and District Courts page points users toward iCourt and local court-record request routes.

St. Anthony Work Camp Address and Contact

Contact SAWC directly for facility-specific visiting, mail, resident services, and current schedule questions. Use IDOC statewide service pages for mail guidelines, resident accounts, phone/tablet services, and commissary rules.

Visiting Someone at St. Anthony Work Camp

IDOC visiting rules apply at St. Anthony Work Camp. Potential visitors must complete a visiting application and background check. IDOC says new residents are not allowed visitors during the reception and diagnostic process, and visitors should wait until classification so they know where to send the application. Processing normally takes two to four weeks, and residents are responsible for notifying prospective visitors of the decision.

SAWC has a facility-specific visiting schedule linked from the IDOC facility page, but the schedule can change because of weather, emergencies, or facility needs. Confirm the current schedule with the facility at 208-624-3775 before traveling. IDOC staff may search visitors and items entering the visiting area, no paper money is allowed in visiting rooms, and IDOC lists restrictions on food, gum, candy, pictures, oils, can openers, sunglasses, and documents except as allowed by policy.

Mail, Phone, and Money at St. Anthony Work Camp

IDOC statewide resident-service rules apply. Use the resident's current mailing address from IDOC search or facility instructions. IDOC says that if no mailing address appears, check back because a mailing address is provided once the person arrives in IDOC custody. Mail rules and restrictions come from IDOC mail guidelines, not from the Fremont County Sheriff's Office.

For money, IDOC resident account guidance says family and friends can send money orders or cashier's checks, no cash or personal checks, payable to the resident with the IDOC number included. IDOC also links Access Corrections for online deposits. Commissary goods are provided through Keefe Commissary Network, and Access SecurePak packages can be ordered online, by phone, or by mail with the payment options documented by IDOC.

Intake and Classification at St. Anthony Work Camp

SAWC is not a street-arrest booking facility for Fremont County. A person normally reaches IDOC after conviction and sentencing, then moves through IDOC reception and classification before assignment. IDOC visiting guidance specifically warns that new residents cannot receive visitors during reception and diagnostic processing, which is why visitors should wait until classification before sending a visiting application.

Once the resident is in IDOC custody, search and records questions move away from the county jail workflow. The IDOC Resident/Client Search is the public lookup route for location and status. iCourt remains useful for the underlying criminal case and sentencing record, while IDOC sentencing-records guidance explains how IDOC handles sentencing record information.

About St. Anthony Work Camp

IDOC describes SAWC as a work camp where minimum- and community-custody men can participate in constructive paid employment with government agencies, nonprofits, and private employers. The research also located Idaho Transportation Department news describing St. Anthony Work Camp residents joining ITD crews in east Idaho during summer work, which provides a concrete example of work-camp activity.

IDOC statewide pages also provide treatment and program resources, PREA information, resident accounts, mail, phone/tablet services, commissary, and visiting rules. A SAWC PREA audit report was located as the facility-specific conditions and compliance source, but no ACA accreditation statement was found on the main pages. No BOP prison or ICE detention facility was located in Fremont County, and SAWC should not be described as federal or immigration detention.
