The Community Corrections Center (CCC) is located adjacent to the Main Jail. The original facility was opened in 1986 with 32 beds. In 1999 it was expanded to 116 beds to meet the demand of an expanding inmate population.

Inmates in the CCC program learn skills that will assist them is securing employment or attend school. This training includes resume’ preparation, interviewing techniques, completion of employment applications, and completion of school admission applications.

Participants in the program are required to obtain reasonable employment after placement, and to pay a fee to cover the cost of staying in the Center. They are also responsible for meeting other financial responsibilities such as paying court ordered restitution, alimony or child support, and unpaid debts.

While in the program participants may be required to continue alcohol and drug treatment started while in the Main Jail, are required to work with an assigned staff person, and to maintain contact with their assigned Parole and Probation Officer. Program participants may also participate in appropriate educational programs that may benefit them.

It is the goal of the Community Corrections Program to assist participants in transitioning back into the community with both gainful employment and the skills to maintain a clean, sober and productive lifestyle.
