Work Release, Home Incarceration and
Non-Consecutive Sentencing
Work Release, Home Incarceration and Non-consecutive sentences are
options in jail sentencing. Each program is slightly different, but all three
are designed to give individuals an opportunity to maintain employment while
serving a jail sentence.
The programs must be authorized by the sentencing judge. The Judge
or the Sheriff can place further restrictions on the participants for each
program. Each Work Release and Home Incarceration participant is required to
sign a contract outlining the rules and regulations of the programs. If
contracts are violated in any way the participant will be charged
institutionally. If found guilty, the participant may be removed from the
program and the sentencing judge will be notified. Click on the links below for
more detailed information about each program.
Alternative Sentencing staff can be reached during normal business
hours 8-4:30 M-F @ (804) 693-5433.
