Warden Henry Atencio

Welcome to the Gregory S. Coleman Unit. We operate this facility for the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. I’m glad you’re taking a few minutes to learn more about what we do. Our goal is to provide your loved one with the right programs that help them to turn over a new leaf in life. We all make mistakes, and these women can make lasting changes if they desire. Your help in this process is crucial. We invite you to be a part of their life by visiting and supporting in other ways. Together, we can make a difference and reduce re-offending. Thank you.
