At the Loudoun County Work Release Center, 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. Loudoun WRC is committed to empowering inmates with skills and opportunities for successful reentry into society.

In addition to housing general population inmates, the Loudoun County Detention Center accommodates inmates enrolled in the Work Release/Workforce program. This facility houses non-violent, minimum-security inmates who are nearing release back into the community, with a capacity of up to 96 inmates. Here is a link to the Inmate Handbook for more specific details about the facilities.

Inmates in the Work Release program pay $12 per day for their stay and are released daily to attend their jobs under strict regulations. The income they earn assists in paying fines, court costs, restitution to victims, and supporting their families, thereby lessening the financial burden on taxpayers.

The Work Release Center also hosts the Sheriff’s Inmate Work Force, comprising non-violent, minimum-custody inmates supervised by armed deputies. They engage in various community tasks such as landscaping, minor construction, and painting, working on state, county, and town properties, as well as charitable organizations' premises. These inmates are compensated between $5 to $7.25 per hour, which directly contributes to fine and court cost payments. Annually, this group saves the county and municipalities thousands of dollars through their labor.

The equipment used by the Sheriff’s Inmate Work Force, including mowers and weed eaters, is procured from the inmate canteen fund, which operates solely from inmate purchases from the commissary vendor without taxpayer support. Moreover, this group undertakes seasonal tasks like grass cutting, landscaping, and snow removal, which would otherwise require contracted services at additional cost to the county.
