The chaplains are in charge of administering to the wide variety of religious needs of the diverse jail population. Protestant, Roman Catholic and Islamic Services, nondenominational Bible Study and Religious Counseling are provided to the inmates on a weekly basis. Clergy from the community assist in providing these services.
Every inmate is assigned a primary counselor.
The Inmate Education Program seeks to rehabilitate inmates through improvement of their academic and vocational competency. About two thirds of the jail population lack a high school diploma or GED most lack the viable job skills needed to maintain substantial employment. More than 350 active volunteers work in the jail contributing well over 10,000 hours per year. Volunteers make up members of jail ministry, leaders of our 12-Step recovery groups, as well as teacher and tutors in our educational and vocational training classes.
