Working in collaboration with the Department's Work Release Center, located at 1401 Hwy 20 W Decatur, AL, and other criminal justice agencies, the division oversees thousands of offenders in the community.

One notable aspect of the North Alabama CBF is its work release programs, which allow selected inmates to engage in gainful employment within the community while being supervised in a community-based facility during non-working hours. These programs are designed to assist inmates in preparing for their eventual release and aid them in transitioning from a structured institutional environment back into the community. Inmates interested in participating in the Work Release Program undergo an evaluation by a Classification Specialist to determine their eligibility.
Participants in the Work Release Program are required to perform a minimum of three hours per week of pro bono community service, a unique aspect of the North Alabama CBF compared to other centers. Additionally, inmates contribute a percentage of their gross salary to cover the costs associated with their participation, including transportation fees, medical co-pays, drug testing fees, and laundry services. Taxes and Social Security deductions are also withheld from their wages, with the remainder deposited into their PMOD account.
In addition to work release programs, the North Alabama CBF also offers drug treatment programs aimed at helping inmates overcome substance abuse issues. These programs, along with aftercare and NA/AA programs, contribute to the overall rehabilitation and well-being of the inmate population.
In conclusion, the North Alabama Community Work Center plays a crucial role in the reintegration of inmates into society by providing opportunities for gainful employment, community service, and drug treatment. Through these programs and initiatives, the center aims to empower inmates to make positive changes in their lives and successfully reintegrate into the community upon their release.
