Choice Moore Transfer Facility houses a maximum of 1,224 male offenders on approximately 697 acres of land shared with Cole Unit.  Both facilities work in cooperation providing work to inmates in contract farming, a unit garden, and caring for security dogs and horses.  Additionally, some inmates are allowed to work in unit maintenance, an in providing laundry services.  Inmates are provided courses in adult basic education, cognitive intervention, life skills, substance abuse education, parenting classes, pre-release programming, and also have the opportunity to earn a GED during their incarceration.  Select inmates are even allowed to work for a local area food bank, and provide supervised labor for the Texas Department of Transportation and the Texas Division of Parks and Wildlife.
