Work Release is a program offered at the facility where qualifying offenders
are afforded the opportunity to maintain their current employment during the
term of their confinement.
Upon determination by the sentencing court that an individual can be considered
for the program, an application is obtained, completed by the offender and returned
to the Work Release Center to determine eligibility. There is a $25.00 application
fee, due at the time of returning the
application to the Work Release Center.
Program fees are based on the offenders ability to pay. To determine program
participation fees, multiply 1% of the individuals monthly gross pay times 7.
This will give the weekly fee amount. If determined by hourly rate of pay, the
individuals hourly rate is multiplied by 173.33 hours and then multiplied by
1%. This in turn is multiplied by 7 to determine the weekly fee amount. The
minimum weekly fee is $84.00 or $12.00 per day.
There is a 5 day sentence minimum to participate in the program.
