McNeil Island
McNeil Island is an island in western Puget Sound, located just west of Steilacoom, Washington, with a land area of 17.177 km² (6.6319 sq mi). It lies just north of Anderson Island. Fox Island is to the north, across Carr Inlet. To the west McNeil Island is separated from Key Peninsula by Pitt Passage. The Washington mainland lies to the east, across the south basin of Puget Sound.
Special Commitment Center
The Special Commitment Center in the state of Washington is a post-sentence treatment institution for Sexually Violent Predators, located on McNeil Island. It is controversial in that it allows the involuntary commitment of sex offenders who have served their prison sentence. However, as in other psychiatric institutions across the country, civil commitment is based on dangerousness related to a mental abnormality.
Pitt Passage
Pitt Passage is a strait, in the southern of part of Puget Sound in the U.S. state of Washington. Entirely within Pierce County, Pitt Passage separates Key Peninsula from McNeil Island. Pitt Passage was named Pit Passage by Charles Wilkes during the Wilkes Expedition of 1838-1842.

The McNeil Island Corrections Center (MICC) was a Washington State Department of Corrections prison on McNeil Island in unincorported Pierce County, Washington, near Steilacoom.
