The Work Release Program is a rehabilitative tool. It is designated to foster and develop work skills and responsible work habits by providing deserving inmates with an opportunity to assist their families while aiding themselves in their adjustment to the demands of society. Used effectively, the Program is intended to assist each participating inmate in his transition from an institutional status to his subsequent life in a community environment wherein he (she) accepts the privileges and discharges the responsibilities of citizenship in the community.
