The ACWR is overseen by the Alabama Department of Corrections and consists of six community-based programs that supervise both pre-sentenced and sentenced offenders, prioritizing public safety and cost-effective alternatives to incarceration. Working in collaboration with the Department's Work Release Center, located at Hwy 22 W Alex City, AL, and other criminal justice agencies, the division oversees thousands of offenders in the community.

The Alex City Community Based Facility and Community Work Center, which commenced operations in September 1974, serves as a state reentry facility under the direction of the Alabama Department of Corrections (ADOC). This center offers various community work services to the Tallapoosa County Commission, including participation in the community's Adopt-A-Mile program, which extends the opportunity for inmate involvement.

Furthermore, the center employs a full-time Drug Treatment Counselor responsible for coordinating Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) and Narcotics Anonymous (NA) classes to support inmates in their journey of recovery from substance abuse. Moreover, religious services are provided weekly, facilitated by volunteers from different denominations.

Over the years, the Alex City Community Work Center has established a commendable rapport with local employers and the community at large. Notably, the employment rate of work release participants has consistently remained at 100%, underscoring the effectiveness of the center's programs. Classified as a minimum custody facility, it emphasizes the importance of rehabilitation and successful reintegration into society. ADC Male Inmate Handbook

The Work Release Program, a cornerstone initiative of the Alabama Department of Corrections, allows selected inmates to secure gainful employment within the community while being supervised in a community-based facility during non-working hours. This program aims to facilitate the transition of inmates from a structured institutional environment to mainstream society. Eligibility criteria and program details are explained by a Classification Specialist to interested inmates.

Upon arrival at a work release facility, inmates are initially assigned to work within the facility itself. However, their participation in community employment is contingent upon approval and placement in a paying job. It's important to note that any objections from relevant parties, such as victims, judges, or district attorneys, may result in the reconsideration of an inmate's participation in the program by the Alabama Department of Corrections, potentially leading to a transfer to a more restrictive facility or restrictions on community work.

In essence, the Alex City Community Based Facility and Community Work Center play a vital role in promoting rehabilitation, facilitating reentry into society, and fostering a sense of responsibility and accountability among its participants. Through its comprehensive programs and initiatives, the center strives to empower individuals to make positive contributions to their communities upon their release.
