Inmates are housed in three buildings each divided into rooms that contain three to four beds. Orientation inmates are housed in building C, as are guide dog residents and Phase I and II inmates. Buildings A and B provide housing to Phase III residents and inmates who are serving long sentences. While incarcerated inmates are prepared for their reintegration through a work release program. This allows the inmate to leave during daytime hours and report to a job and earn a wage, instilling good work ethic and providing a savings account to utilize once released.
