Work Release
Work Release is a program that allows individuals in correctional facilities to leave the facility during the day to work at a job in the community. This program aims to help inmates gain work experience, earn money, and prepare for their eventual reintegration into society.
Participants typically return to the facility at night or on weekends. Work Release programs can reduce recidivism rates by providing skills and support, making it easier for individuals to find stable employment after their release. These programs are often part of broader rehabilitation efforts within the criminal justice system.
