Monterey Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility

Monterey Shock Incarceration Correctional Facility is a minimum security male shock facility located in Beaver Dams, Schuyler County, New York. It was opened on May 1, 1958. New York's shock program was legalized in July 1987. In addition to no-nonsense military discipline, reduced privileges, in-your-face drill instructors and hard physical labor, the six-month shock program differed from other similar "boot camps" around the nation. It would stress education, drug and alcohol abuse treatment and a "therapeutic community" component. At first inmates could be no older than 23, but the New York State Legislature gradually extended shock programs to older inmates. Currently, inmates must be under 50 years old.
