The majority of the individuals accepted into the Pueblo County Jail are pre-sentenced felons, since a policy is in effect under which the jail only accepts new arrests for felony crimes, suspects accused of DUI, Incidents of Domestic Violence, violent charges, and charges of endangering the safety of an individual.
The Pueblo County Jail has several programs to encourage education, substance abuse, and anger management and many other options to individuals who are able to develop skills that can be beneficial to facilitating the ability of inmates to adapt well to life outside of jail following their release.
There are two divisions of the Pueblo County Sheriff's Office that are active in the Pueblo County Jail: Security and Operations. Security handles housing, managing the population, supervising inmates, and the Criminal Investigations Division.
