About Jail to Work
The Jail to Work program promotes the recovery of women who have a substance use disorder and are involved in the criminal justice system. The 12-week program provides participants with skills-building and relapse prevention. The goal is to reduce recidivism and increase community tenure through work, transitional housing, recovery, and reintegration into the community.
“Jail to Work has saved my life. It has given me all the tools I need to succeed in my recovery”
