Securus Connects The primary mission of Securus Technologies® has always been to facilitate the connection between incarcerated individuals and their loved ones. Now, we want to focus on these relationships with our new campaign, Securus Connects.

The Ft. Bend County Detention Center is the most technologically advanced county jail in the state of Texas. With advanced technology from Securus®, incarcerated individuals at Ft. Bend receive access to educational courses, job openings, positive hope content, multiple channels to connect them with family and friends, and much more. Offenders are able to focus on their future outside of incarceration; creating a safer and more secure environment. Overall, the implementation of Securus Technologies programs has allowed Ft. Bend to have a lower recidivism rate than other centers in the area.
