What does the Sheriff do to ensure that inmates will become better citizens after release?
A. There are a number of life and job skill programs available to inmates at the House of Correction to facilitate a safer, legal lifestyle upon release back into the community. Inmates can participate in educational, recovery and vocational programs while incarcerated at the House of Correction. The Suffolk County Sheriff’s Department emphasizes personal responsibility for an individual’s actions, while also attempting to rehabilitate behavior that may have led to criminal actions.
