The organization commonly referred to as **North Florida Prison** appears to be a misnomer or a conflation of several correctional institutions in northern Florida. There is no direct entity named "North Florida Prison" in the available records. However, relevant facilities in northern Florida include the **Northwest Florida Reception Center (NWFRC)** and the **North Florida Evaluation and Treatment Center (NFETC)**, both state-operated and serving distinct roles within Florida's correctional and mental health systems.

An annex was added in 2008, increasing capacity by more than 1,400.

Its mission centers on safety, security, and humane treatment with a vision to improve organizational effectiveness through compassion, integrity, and community teamwork[4]. Both institutions operate under the umbrella of the Florida Department of Corrections, which manages one of the nation’s largest prison systems with nearly 100,000 inmates statewide and emphasizes public safety, inmate rehabilitation, and operational integrity[5][6].
