N2  - While a number of state departments of corrections have developed and are using objective classification systems, many of these pay minimal attention to one important component of this approachóclassifying their institutions. Inconsistencies within systemsófor example, the same institutional title being applied to dissimilar facilitiesóleads to mismatches between inmate security needs and prison designations. This article describes a method for determining relative levels of institutional security, which can be customized to fit the unique characteristics of each jurisdiction's array of facilities.
