Reintegration Housing

The Reintegration Housing Unit seeks to provide offenders with a pro social environment conducive for self development. The unit focuses upon instilling responsibility and accountability by offering a variety of programming to address criminogenic needs, as well as meaningful activities and community service.

Commercial Drive's License (CDL)

This is a career enhancement program that allows an offender to take the written exam for a commercial driver's license. Upon successful completion of the exam, the offender will engage in a four week training program administered by Trainco, a professional truck driving school.  This program includes 40 hours of instructional classroom work followed by three weeks of pre-trip vehicle inspection, maneuverability, and road test.

Reading Room

The reading rooms encourage family literacy by providing a pleasant and comfortable setting for both child and incarcerated parent. Each room is stocked with a wide variety of children’s books and has an inmate narrator who reads to the visiting children twice a day. The role of the inmate narrator is to read picture books to the children in much the same manner that children’s hour would be done at a public library. A variety of arts and craft supplies for the children are also available in most of the rooms. Many of the supplies and books are donated by employees and service organizations.
