It is operated by the Federal Bureau of Prisons, a division of the United States Department of Justice.

It was announced in the summer of 2013 that FCI Danbury would transition from housing women to housing men with the female inmates transferring out between August and December 2013 and the male inmates arriving in early 2014. The satellite camp will continue to house female offenders. FCI Danbury is located in southwestern Connecticut, approximately 55 miles from New York City.
