Because Rolleston Prison contains prisoners assessed as being of minimal risk to the public, the level of physical security is lower than would be found at many other prisons. [19], The prison accommodates up to 548 prisoners with security classifications ranging from minimum to high-medium and employs 180 staff. In 1992 the 60 bed Kowhai unit opened and an additional two units have been completed since then. It opened on 30 March 2011. [67] The prison is on a large site of more than 8,000 hectares off the Desert Road near Turangi. Quarterly statistics for prison as at 30 June 2019.

It is New Zealand's largest prison, holding up to 1078 prisoners and employing about 570 staff. [87][86] Most of the programme is based on cognitive-behavioural therapy,[88] dialectical behaviour therapy, group psychotherapy, recreational psychology and a narrative approach to therapy. The oldest part of the prison, the main Kaitoke Prison complex, was built in 1978, and Te Ohorere, a Self Care Unit, and Te Whakataa minimum security units opened in 2005.

This rehabilitation programme is designed to address the particular needs of female prisoners – many of whom have suffered sexual abuse during childhood and in their current relationships. [41], ARWCF is the first purpose-built women's prison in New Zealand. It was built in 1927 next to the suburb of Miramar in Wellington and replaced the original Terrace Gaol in central Wellington.

A Faith-Based Unit providing a programme for prisoners centred around the Christian faith was closed in 2012 after evaluation found it had no impact on reducing reoffending. Wellington lawyer Mary More, who represents a 75-year-old prisoner believes the unit is long overdue and said: "The Department of Corrections needs to recognise that the courts are sending more and more people to prison for longer ... and we are going to have an aging prison population. The prison also accommodated offenders on remand. The Victorian stone building with its high towers and thick stone perimeter wall is still a recognisable Auckland landmark. According to the latest data from the ABS, across Australia 33% of the total prison population (13,182) is on remand. It was built in 1925 and accommodates about 930 prisoners. Rolleston now holds about 320 male prisoners and employs 93 staff. Given its size, the Department says it is not possible to surround the Tongariro/Rangipo Prison site with razor wire fencing but units within the prison grounds are said to be appropriately fenced.
