Locate Stevenson Unit Inmates

Stevenson Unit Overview

Clarence N. Stevenson Unit is a Texas Department of Criminal Justice Correctional Institutions Division prison in DeWitt County. TDCJ says the unit is one mile northeast of Cuero city limits on FM 766. It houses sentenced adult male state prisoners in TDCJ custody, with G1, G2, and G4 custody levels. G1 and G2 are lower general-population custody levels, while G4 is a more restrictive general-population level. That custody language belongs to TDCJ, not the DeWitt County Jail roster.

The official unit directory lists Senior Warden Michael Feazell, Region III Regional Director Jerry Sanchez, Deputy Division Director Lonnie "L.E." Townsend, and Division Director Eric Guerrero. The prison came online in April 1994 and has been ACA accredited since May 2001. It sits on about 464 acres and operates with security, non-security, Windham Education, and medical contract staff. The unit also has operations that include contract grazing, security horses, security pack canines, a unit garden, a Texas Second Chance Program, a modular furniture factory, and unit maintenance.

The TDCJ Stevenson Unit directory is the primary source for prison capacity, custody levels, programs, and contact details.

Use that TDCJ facility page to confirm prison-level facts before relying on county jail information for someone in state custody.

Stevenson Unit Capacity

TDCJ lists Clarence N. Stevenson Unit with a capacity of 1,384. That figure comes from the state prison unit directory, not from the Texas Commission on Jail Standards county jail population workbook. TCJS reports the DeWitt County Jail's local jail capacity and snapshot population, while TDCJ reports the state prison's directory capacity and state prison operations. Keeping those sources separate prevents one of the most common lookup mistakes in DeWitt County.

The research did not locate a current daily Stevenson Unit population count comparable to the TCJS DeWitt County Jail snapshot. For an individual state prisoner, the better public route is the TDCJ inmate information search, which reports location and selected sentence data when a record is available. VINELink Texas may also support custody notifications where participating records are available, but it does not replace the official TDCJ locator.

Search Stevenson Unit Inmates

Use the TDCJ Inmate Information Search for Clarence N. Stevenson Unit inmates. TDCJ says the online service is for public convenience and safety, is updated on working days only, and is at least 24 hours old. The DeWitt County Citizen Connect roster should not be used as the main lookup route for sentenced TDCJ prisoners. A person who was booked into DeWitt County Jail may later move to TDCJ after sentencing and classification, but once that happens the state locator is the better record source.

1. Open the TDCJ inmate search and choose a name search, TDCJ number search, or SID number search.
2. For a name search, enter an exact last name and at least the first initial in the first-name field.
3. Use gender and race filters only when they help narrow a common name without excluding the right person.
4. Review the result for location, offenses, projected release date, and whether the person is assigned to Stevenson Unit.

The TDCJ inmate search form shows the state fields used for sentenced Texas prisoners, including name, TDCJ number, SID number, gender, and race.

Those fields are different from DeWitt County Jail's current-confinements and recent-admits roster because the two systems serve different custody populations.

Stevenson Unit Contact

The official TDCJ unit directory lists Clarence N. Stevenson Unit at 1525 FM 766, Cuero, TX 77954, with phone 361-275-2075. TDCJ describes the location as one mile northeast of Cuero city limits on FM 766 in DeWitt County. For state prison custody questions, confirm the person is assigned to the unit through TDCJ before using the unit contact line. For a person recently arrested in DeWitt County but not yet sentenced to TDCJ, use the DeWitt County Jail roster or jail phone instead.

TDCJ also provides broader inmate information routes through its inmate information pages, including online, email, and telephone inquiry options for location, offenses, and projected release date. TDCJ tells relatives to call the unit before traveling to pick up an inmate. That warning is important because release dates, unit location, and visit status can change.

Stevenson Unit Visits

Visitation at Clarence N. Stevenson Unit follows TDCJ statewide visitation rules. Visitors should confirm that the inmate is assigned to Stevenson Unit, verify the person has visitation privileges, confirm approved visitor status, bring photo ID, follow clothing rules, avoid prohibited items, and expect visitor or vehicle searches. TDCJ's rules are not the same as the DeWitt County Jail's group schedule for males, females, and trustees.

The TDCJ visitation page explains visitor approval, identification, clothing, prohibited items, travel confirmation, and the weekend visitation hotline.

Check the TDCJ visitation source close to the trip date because unit restrictions, cancellations, and special visit approvals can change.

Stevenson Unit Mail and Money

Mail, phone, deposits, and commissary for Clarence N. Stevenson Unit should follow TDCJ statewide rules and the unit's current instructions. The research file did not provide a Stevenson-specific deposit vendor, mail room rule sheet, package policy, phone rate, or commissary fee table. Do not use DeWitt County Jail's lobby kiosk, Access Secure Deposits phone number, inmate deposit website, or no-money-order rule as if it applied to TDCJ prisoners unless TDCJ separately confirms the same rule.

The safest sequence is to confirm the inmate's location in the TDCJ locator, review TDCJ's current offender communication and deposit rules, and then contact Stevenson Unit if the rule depends on unit status or eligibility. State prison privileges may also depend on custody level, disciplinary status, and classification.

Stevenson Unit Intake

Clarence N. Stevenson Unit does not handle ordinary street-arrest booking for DeWitt County. Local arrests are booked at DeWitt County Jail first. A person reaches TDCJ after sentencing, commitment, and state classification. TDCJ's Correctional Institutions Division is responsible for secure confinement of adult felony and state-jail felony inmates who are in state custody, while the county jail handles local pretrial detention, local sentences, bond holds, and other county-level custody.

That custody flow affects searches. A person may appear in Citizen Connect after a DeWitt County arrest, then later stop appearing in the county roster after transfer. At that point, the TDCJ locator, TDCJ unit directory, and TDCJ visitation rules become the main public sources. Court records from the county clerk or district clerk remain separate from both the jail roster and TDCJ locator.

TDCJ lists Literacy, Adult Basic Education, GED, CHANGES Pre-Release, Cognitive Intervention, Electrical Trades, Piping Trades and Plumbing, a Faith-Based Dormitory, Adult Education Program when available, Reentry Planning, Peer Education, Chaplaincy Services, and GO KIDS Initiative.

The unit's operations and programs make it a major state correctional presence in DeWitt County, but they do not make it part of the county jail roster system.
