At the Anoka County Workhouse, inmates with good behavior have access to traditional jobs in the public sector during the day. The program offers varying degrees of freedom, some even allowing prisoners to work during the week and return home, serving their sentences on only weekends. Depending on the terms (which change from time to time), inmates may reside in a halfway house or under home confinement when not working. As they near their release date, residents may transition to reintegration programs, with potential offers of full-time employment upon full release.
Work release program initiatives have proven benefits, including increased employment opportunities post-release, accelerated job acquisition, higher post-release earnings, and reduced recidivism rates among participants. Anoka Workhouse is committed to empowering inmates with skills and opportunities for successful reentry into society.
The Anoka County Workhouse, situated on the Rum River Human Services Center campus in Anoka, serves as a 240-bed minimum security correctional facility. It accommodates both male and female adults sentenced in Anoka County, with consideration given to out-of-county court referrals. Inmates must meet minimum security placement criteria to serve their sentences at the Workhouse.
For residents seeking employment during their incarceration, a Work Release or "Huber" program is available, subject to court approval and facility staff endorsement. This program grants residents the privilege of working outside the facility upon providing proof of employment. Unemployed residents may also qualify for supervised work crews within the community.
Work Release Expectations information - To be considered for work release, your sentencing judge must order that you may serve your sentence on "Work Release or Huber, if eligible." The Workhouse will determine your eligibility. All employment will be verified and approved by Workhouse staff before you are allowed to leave for work. Employment that cannot be verified or does not appear legitimate will be denied.
Residents who meet work release eligibility are charged a per-day fee to be on Work Release. The first week of fees and an intake fee are required to be paid upon intake. Work Release fees are accepted only by money order and payable to Anoka County Corrections.
To request Work Release-Huber privileges, the following documentation must be provided at the time of intake to the Workhouse:
