We are excited to finally add the Job Readiness class to our list of programs!
This class will help the inmates learn useful skills, like making a resume, fill out job forms and work with others.
We hope to bring in some local business leaders during this class to talk with the inmates about job opportunities.

As Correctional Officer’s week comes to an end, we would like to extend our sincere appreciation for the support and recognition from our Community.

“National Correctional Officers & Employees Week” was established by President Reagan in 1984, to honor the, often unseen, dedication of correctional professionals who maintain public safety in jails and prisons. These men and women take an oath to protect and serve, and they work hard to show that every single day!

Special thanks to the following businesses for their generous donations:

-Mind & Body MedSpa
-My Smile Versailles
-Cornerstone Pharmacy
-Oak & Moore
-BelAir Florist
-Chamber of Commerce
-Cindy Shryock, realtor
-Shop Around the Corner
-Kellwell
-Sweet Pea Southern, Niki Bryant
-Dominos
-Arbys
-Callie’s
-J&B Marathon
-Ricardos

We’re grateful to welcome back our Catholic service from St. Leo church, who also provides options for services in Spanish.

Providing multiple faith services, including options for Spanish-speaking individuals, is an important part of supporting a diverse population. We’re equally grateful for all of our faith-based programs and the volunteers who consistently serve our facility. Thank you for all you do!
