The chief objective of the Community Corrections program is to preserve public safety while providing offenders with rehabilitative opportunities through participation in jail based programs in hopes of reducing the number of repeat offenders, improve jail utilization and provide the potential for inmates to earn days off of their sentence upon successful completion of programming.
Community Corrections currently consists of the following programs: Case Management, Community Service Work, Screening and Assessment, Cognitive Behavioral Classes and Substance Abuse Treatment. Community Corrections provides trustee labor to various governmental and non-profit agencies within Clinton County as well as multiple community events. The continuing partnership between Community Corrections/Sheriff’s Office and Community Mental Health provides hundreds of hours of services for professional mental health and substance abuse assessment and treatment.
