SUFFOLK COUNTY, MA - Seven inmates from the Suffolk County Massachusetts Community Works Program (CWP) have spent their days for the past two weeks outside the South Bay House of Correction to help renovate the State Police Troop H-4 barracks.  CWP crew painting interior The CWP crew spent several days clearing over grown vegetation and debris from the barracks and along the river before working on the building's interior. After tearing down several walls and pulling up old flooring, the crew rebuilt a room that will serve as the gym. They also repaired and repainted several offices and a bathroom. CWP claims the carpentry, painting, landscaping, and maintenance tasks performed by the crew helps to solidify training the men received at the House of Correction, training that the Department of Workforce Development has recently qualified as apprentice training. It is the first time in state history a correctional facility has received such certification. In addition to preparing inmates for employment post-release, the work performed by CWP crews offers some restitution to the community. In 2005, work performed by CWP crews saved tax payers more than $913,000. Past jobs have included installing a playground in Revere and repainting schools during vacation. Their services will be provided to some public libraries and community centers this winter. |
