With the hopes of reducing inmate recidivism, Chautauqua County is focusing on helping inmates get a job after incarceration. A program promoting inmate reentry into the community is being offered for individuals who deal with offenders in their occupation. The Offender Workforce Development Partnership Training Program beginning in January and ending in May focuses on training individuals who work with inmates reentering the community with an emphasis on getting those inmates employable. The program, described as a train-the-trainer effort, is being hosted at the State University of New York at Fredonia. The three-week process will take place from Jan. 14-18, March 18-22 and again from May 13-16. Applicants are still being considered until Jan. 4. The program was discussed at a recent Community Justice Council meeting comprised of various agencies throughout the county seeking to address issues related to criminal justice. Read More. |
