program, we provide a continuum of supportive career development services based
on an individualized comprehensive assessment of clients’ strengths, skills and

independence, maintain pride and dignity and realize their potential. Increasing
their quality of life and empowering them to become productive and contributing
citizens to the community while meeting child support obligations and requirements.
The program is designed to enhance both Child Support and the Pre-Trial release
program. The CCS accepts offenders (male and female) referred by child support court,
who are in need of one or all of the following; employment, education, life skills
classes, vocational and/or intense monitoring. The target population includes individuals
with criminal backgrounds. The CCS Works with the pre-trial release program by providing
an enhanced monitoring element to select inmates released into the pre-trial release
program.
While attending the CCS, offenders are closely monitored by interacting in a structured
environment that provides offenders access to health education, vocational and educational
training. Individuals must account for their job search efforts. Accountability
is accomplished through the use of in person reporting requirements. Offenders are
required to report daily and do extensive job searches. Individuals found in violation
of the rules are terminated from the program and are in direct violation of a court
order.
