Alternative sentencing options help reduce overcrowding of local jails and provide services to community organizations. Programs for incarcerated individuals and ex-offenders reduce recidivism, expand career options, build family stability and enhance community life.

Trained volunteers support a variety of jail-based classes, groups and individual assistance.
