Work Release Information and Statistics
Presentations
Employment of PRRS residents is a critical component of the reentry process. Residents entering the Pre-Release Center possess a wide-ranging set of skills and work experiences, starting with those who have never held a job and extending to those residents who bring years of experience and a wide variety of work skills to their employers. Residents are expected to obtain meaningful full-time employment in the community. PRRS residents are employed in jobs located throughout the metropolitan area, including work in construction, food service, retail, landscaping, administrative support and professional positions.
Work Release Coordinators at PRRS work with both residents and employers to ensure appropriate job placement, making certain that employers are aware of a resident’s current status. Work Release Coordinators maintain an ongoing relationship with employers in the community to ensure accountability and to evaluate the resident’s job performance. In 2006, residents at PRRS earned over $2 million in gross income, contributed $377.000 in program fees to defer the costs of their incarceration, paid nearly $200,000 in family and child support and and also paid over $10,000 in restitution and court costs.
