At the Whatcom County Jail Work 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. Whatcom Jail WC is committed to empowering inmates with skills and opportunities for successful reentry into society.
The Whatcom County Interim Work Center offers housing and programs for minimum security and program offenders, overseen by administrative staff. Our facility provides Alternative Corrections Programs, offering courts and offenders alternate forms of incarceration. These programs are designed to select participants posing minimal risk to the community, offset correctional costs through participant fees, establish specific supervision objectives, and maintain intensive contact with participants.
Current alternative programs include Electronic Home Detention, Work Release, In Custody Work Crew, and Out of Custody Work Crew. Electronic Home Detention involves supervised home confinement with electronic monitoring. Work Release allows individuals to maintain employment while serving their sentence. In Custody Work Crew offers in-facility work programs, while Out of Custody Work Crew involves community-based initiatives.
These programs aim to provide constructive alternatives to traditional incarceration, promoting rehabilitation, community safety, and individual accountability. For further details on our services, please contact us directly.
