At the Sedgwick County Residential Work Release, inmates with good behavior have access to traditional jobs in the public sector during the day. The program offers varying degrees of freedom, some even allowing prisoners to work during the week and return home, serving their sentences on only weekends. Depending on the terms (which change from time to time), inmates may reside in a halfway house or under home confinement when not working. As they near their release date, residents may transition to reintegration programs, with potential offers of full-time employment upon full release.

Work release program initiatives have proven benefits, including increased employment opportunities post-release, accelerated job acquisition, higher post-release earnings, and reduced recidivism rates among participants. Sedgwick Co RWR is committed to empowering inmates with skills and opportunities for successful reentry into society.

The highly structured, 65-bed coed residential facility, known as the Sedgwick County Residential Work Release, emphasizes intensive supervision and accountability, meticulously monitoring offenders' daily activities both in the community and during treatment.

On average, offenders spend approximately 110 days at the Residential Center.

In addition to the Residential Work Release program, the service center, known as the Sedgwick County Service Work Release, offers comprehensive supervision, case management, and intervention services tailored to the individual needs of offenders from both the residential center and the intensive supervision program. These services aim to reduce the risk of reoffending or violating probation terms that may result in incarceration. Offerings include outpatient substance abuse treatment, job preparation and job-seeking assistance, cognitive skills development, mental health assessments, and individual and group counseling to enhance anger management and problem-solving abilities. Through these personalized services, the center strives to support offenders in achieving positive outcomes and contributing to a safer community.
