Work Release

The Work Release program opened in October 2007. The target population for this program is fourth time or greater DUI offenders. These offenders ordered to the program are serving their sentence while being allowed to maintain their employment, pay taxes and pay on their program and court financial obligations. The program provides high accountability for the offenders including their time spent in the community at their place of employment. Work Release staff regularly conduct compliance checks and maintain contact with employers to ensure the offenders are complying with the rules of the program on a consistent basis.
