Are there plans to make more educational programs or correspondence classes available to offenders in the future?
RESPONSE:WSD is currently offering academic programs at nearly every facility and vocational programs at most facilities. WSD has neither the physical classroom/shop space nor the funding to serve all offenders at the same time; therefore, offenders under age 35 and within five years of projected release have the highest priority for enrollment in WSD academic and vocational programs. At the present funding level, WSD cannot expand current programming. WSD does not offer correspondence courses.
