Mission: To provide quality and humane chemical dependency treatment and community corrections services to clients while contributing to safer communities.
Programs: Community based correctional facility program provides a local, highly structured, and secure community sanction in which clients will be assessed, treated, and supervised. This sanction is in lieu of being sentenced to a state prison. There are four phases to the program; phase i - assessment and confinement, phase ii - community involvement, phase iii - maintenance, phase iv - community placement.
halfway house programming is designed to divert clients from the crowded jail and prison systems and provide the courts with a direct sentencing option to a community sanction that provides a highly structured, residential setting and emphasizes re-entry into the community. The client's program needs are assessed through a standard risk/needs assessment (level of service inventory - revised) used to develop an individualized program.
nonresidential services provide the courts a variety of programs that offer clients the opportunity to receive services they may need without being placed into confinement. This can be far less costly to the community while still providing very structured needs based programing that helps re-entry to the community. Some examples are day reporting,electronic monitoring, pretrial supervision and secure continuous remote alcohol monitoring program (scram).
glenwood jail, treatment services and the federal bureau of prison placement account for practically all of our remaining programming.

The federal bureau of prison placement provides for probation placements or as a condition of release from prison. All placements are monitored by the federal bureau of prisons. The client's program needs are assessed through a standard risk/needs assessment (level of service inventory-revised) used to develop an individualized program plan.
