Inmate Services

The purpose of Inmate Services is to assist inmates with non-medical social service needs and to provide inmate programs. The department consists of one supervisor, two officers, one account clerk, one commissary clerk and two clerks that assist in visitation and general office duties.

Inmate Services has many functions and responsibilities, including: commissary; inmate accounts, family and professional visitation; assisting inmates making phone calls for legal representation and social services; prisoner property releases; processing inmate property left behind; sorting inmate mail; inmate haircuts; assembling and distribution of inmate care packages; hygiene kits and handbooks. Inmate Services also arranges and supervises all in-house professional appointments for inmates by outside agencies.

The Stark County Sheriff's Office owns and operates its own inmate commissary. Commissary sales for 2013 totaled $272,585.07. All profits from the sale of hygiene products, clothing, food items and games are used to purchase supplies and equipment for the inmates. These funds are used to purchase hygiene products and clothing for the indigent inmates, winter coveralls and hats for the inmates who work outside and inmate uniforms and footwear.

Inmate Services personnel supervise video visitation for the inmates which has afforded a flexibility not seen in most correctional facilities. This permits simultaneous visitation for males, females and juveniles which was not possible in the past thereby allowing expanded hours and opportunities for visitors. .

Religious Services: Non-denominational Chapel Services and Bible Study classes are provided each week. Currently close to 600 Clergy and volunteers are registered with the jail. Inmate Services conducts background checks on each applicant for registered clergy. Bibles and other religious materials are distributed to the inmates upon request. These books are returned when the inmate gets released from jail.

AA and NA: Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) are offered weekly to the inmates. These programs are popular with the inmates since it gets them out of their housing unit and they are beneficial in nature to address substance abuse issues. Security background checks are conducted by Inmate Services of the leaders of these groups in the same manner as our registered clergy. Only those inmates who are classified as non-violent may participate in these jail programs. All programs offered at the jail are voluntary in nature and they have a waiting list due to class size limitations.
