The Day Management Center serves as a hub of support services to clients under the supervision of Yamhill County Department of Community Justice. DMC focuses services on medium and high risk clients for the purpose of obtaining employment with education or intensive supervision tracks also available. The Probation Officer making the referral works with the DMC Coordinator to determine the most appropriate track.

RTW consists of a three Tier System. In each of the Tiers, clients will participate in the program up to five days per week.

  • TIER 1(T1):Intake & Assessment

In Tier 1, clients report to the Day Management Center (DMC) for a comprehensive intake interview at which time the Coordinator obtains background information related to employment, skills, and other pertinent information. The client and Coordinator review the program requirements and set individual goals with action steps. In T1, clients are referred to meet on-site with Goodwill Industries to develop a resume and obtain additional resources available via Goodwill. Clients are registered on-site with the Imatch employment program through Worksource Oregon (Oregon Employment Department) and receive a referral to local temp agencies. Clients establish a reporting schedule (between 9am-12pm on days determined by the Coordinator up to 5 days per week). In T1, the client is being observed on punctuality, communication, time management, and following directions.

Upon completion of the above components of T1, the DMC Coordinator administers a performance evaluation to see if the client is in compliance. The DMC Coordinator may promote the client to Tier 2 upon verification of compliance.

  • TIER 2(T2): Skill Building & Job Search

In T2, clients focus on job search, accountability, and skill building. The DMC Coordinator works with the client to enhance their employability which can include work with interview skills (mock interviewing), role playing how to answer questions about a criminal record, hygiene/presentation, and application techniques. In addition, the Coordinator may refer a client to outside agencies for specific workshops such as Worksource Oregon, Goodwill Industries and Hope on the Hill to name just a few. In T2, the Coordinator also begins working with the client on money management and budgeting skills, developing a budget which can be modified throughout their time at DMC and beyond.

Job search is required with a minimum of three new applications per day. Clients are required to document their employment contacts for accountability purposes and provide such documentation to the Coordinator on their scheduled reporting days.

The goal of T2 is to secure employment. Once a client has obtained employment, the Coordinator evaluates the client for promotion to Tier 3.

  • TIER 3(T3): Job Success

Once a client obtains employment, they are promoted to T3. In T3, the focus is on the transitional period of working full time, while managing life outside of work, and touch on issues that may arise on the job. A strong focus of T3 is money management/budgeting wherein the Coordinator revisits the previously outlined budget from T2 to assist the client with managing paychecks appropriately.

The client reports weekly (at minimum) by phone to the DMC Coordinator for 45 days, with a minimum of one face-to-face contact. If the client continues to be employed after 45 days, the DMC Coordinator may graduate the client from the RTW program.

Graduation: Upon successful completion of T3, the client participates in a graduation ceremony with other RTW clients in various stages of the program.

The Yamhill County Work Crew Program

The Yamhill County Work Crew Program is a combination of in-custody inmate workers and out-of-custody community service workers that perform community service work under the supervision and direction of Yamhill County Community Corrections.

For in-custody inmates that are serving time at the Yamhill County Correctional Facility (Jail), the Yamhill County Work Crew Program is designed to allow sentenced inmates to work for county agencies and receive a sentence reduction. These inmates are housed in the Yamhill County Correctional Facility’s Work Release/Restitution Center and allowed to leave the facility to perform supervised community service projects throughout Yamhill County. Inmate participation in the work crew program is a privilege that is extended to sentenced inmates by the Yamhill County Commissioners Office, the Yamhill County Sheriff’s Office, Yamhill County Community Corrections, Yamhill County Circuit Court, and the county agencies which are selected to participate by the Board of Commissioners.

Community Corrections’ Work Crew Program also serves as the primary resource for the courts, for referring offenders to fulfill court-ordered Work Crew and community service obligations. The Work Crew Program also receives a high volume of probation clients with work crew sanctions, as well as a small number of out of county referrals for work crew sanctions. Community Corrections’ staff will receive and process referrals, schedule the days to be worked with the offenders, track the progress, and report back to the referral source (completion, failure to complete, or removal from the program), as well as the on-the-ground component that includes the scheduling of worksites, allocation of labor, supervision of work performed, training, transportation, and etc. Depending on labor needs and projects, out-of-custody clients either work with assigned work crews (many times alongside inmate workers) or are placed at partnering agency worksites to work under the direction of authorized staff.

Purpose

The work crew program in Yamhill County is based on a philosophy that work crew is a useful intermediate alternative between confinement and release to the open community. The program provides stable sentencing alternatives for the court while maintaining a high emphasis toward community safety.

  1. Allows the offender to work in a way that promotes good health through physical and mental exercise;
  2. Allows the offender to work time off his/her sentence, as an inmate worker of the Yamhill County Correctional Facility;
  3. Allows offender to show his/her potential in the areas of compliance and hard work;
  4. Allows offender the opportunity to develop work skills, life skills, and responsible attitudes;
  5. Allows offender the opportunity to make a positive contribution to the community;

Benefits to the Court:

  1. Provides an alternative sentencing option;
  2. Provides evaluation information to aid in the decision making process for individuals involved in the criminal justice system;
  3. Provides a monitoring, supervision, and reporting program for individuals involved in the work crew program;
  4. Assists in the development of beneficial release programs to the open community;
  5. Provides more custody beds in the general population of the Yamhill County Correctional Facility;
  6. Provides a tool of community awareness that reflects positively on the Yamhill County Justice System;

Benefits to the community:

  2. Provides a transition of incarcerated individuals to the open community;

Inmate Locator

Finding an Inmate at Yamhill County Community Corrections

If you're trying to locate someone in custody at Yamhill County Community Corrections in McMinnville, Oregon, the fastest path depends on how recently the arrest happened, what type of facility holds the inmate, and how quickly that facility updates its public records. There is no single nationwide inmate database that covers every detention facility in real time, so locating a specific person often means checking multiple sources or calling Yamhill County Community Corrections directly at 503-434-7513.

Using the InmateAid Inmate Search

The InmateAid inmate search is the fastest starting point for locating someone at Yamhill County Community Corrections. The search pulls from facility rosters, booking systems, and arrest record databases to return current custody status, charges, and housing facility. If the person was arrested or transferred recently and doesn't appear yet, the facility likely hasn't updated its public roster, which can lag by hours or a full business day. Try again later or call 503-434-7513 to confirm.

When the Inmate Doesn't Appear in the Search

Several explanations are possible if a person isn't showing up. The booking may not be complete. The person may have been released, transferred to another facility, or moved to federal or immigration custody. Some facilities deliberately delay public records by 24 to 72 hours for security reasons. Minors are never published in any public locator regardless of facility. To rule out a transfer or release, call 503-434-7513 and ask the booking desk to confirm current status.

What You'll Need to Search Effectively

Have ready: full legal name and any aliases, date of birth, and approximate date of arrest. If you know which agency made the arrest, that narrows results significantly. A booking number locates the record immediately. Without at least a full name and approximate date, searches return too many results to be useful.

Once You've Located the Inmate

When you confirm the person is at Yamhill County Community Corrections, set up a prepaid phone account so you don't miss the first call, and arrange any money transfer or commissary funding needed. For phone discount plans, money transfer, and mail services available at Yamhill County Community Corrections, see InmateAid's inmate services and call 503-434-7513.

Visitation Information

Visiting an Inmate at Yamhill County Community Corrections

Visiting someone held at Yamhill County Community Corrections in McMinnville, Oregon starts with confirming the current visiting schedule, the visitor approval process, and your status on the approved visitor list. Visitation policies vary widely from one facility to another based on operating authority, security level, and the inmate's current status. Call Yamhill County Community Corrections directly at 503-434-7513 to confirm what applies right now.

Getting on the Approved Visitor List

Most detention facilities require visitors to be approved in advance. The inmate at Yamhill County Community Corrections typically submits a list of proposed visitors, and each adult on that list completes a visitor application form for a background check. Approval timelines range from a few days to several weeks depending on the facility. Do not travel for a visit until you have received confirmation. Call 503-434-7513 for the visitor application process and expected approval timeline.

Visiting Days, Hours, and Scheduling

Visiting schedules at Yamhill County Community Corrections depend on the facility's operating model. Some facilities offer walk-in visits during posted hours; others require advance scheduling through an online portal or phone reservation. Visiting days may differ by housing unit or classification. Holiday schedules often change without much notice. Call 503-434-7513 a day or two before your planned visit to confirm the slot is still open and the inmate is eligible for visits.

ID, Dress Code, and What to Bring

Bring a valid government-issued photo ID: driver's license, state ID, military ID, or passport. Most facilities require it to be unexpired and match the name on your approved application. Dress codes at Yamhill County Community Corrections are enforced at entry: no revealing attire, no clothing that resembles inmate or staff uniforms, no hats, and in many facilities no underwire bras. Leave phones, bags, electronics, keys, and wallets in your vehicle or in lobby lockers.

Inmate Status and Visit Eligibility

A visit can be denied for reasons unrelated to your paperwork: the inmate may be in disciplinary status, restricted housing, medical isolation, or holdover during a transfer. Facility-wide lockdowns also suspend visits without notice. If the inmate has recently arrived, been moved, or had any change in status, call 503-434-7513 before traveling. A phone call the morning of the visit can save a wasted trip.

Video Visitation

Many detention facilities now offer video visitation through providers such as Securus, GTL/ViaPath, HomeWAV, or Smart Communications, either alongside or in place of in-person visits. Video visits typically require setting up a paid account, scheduling in advance, and connecting from a smartphone, tablet, or computer. For information on inmate phone discount plans and money transfer services, see InmateAid's inmate services and call 503-434-7513 to confirm what's available at Yamhill County Community Corrections.

Frequently Asked Questions About Yamhill County Community Corrections

State probation and parole programs provide supervision and structured reintegration for individuals serving sentences outside of incarceration. Probation is an alternative to jail or prison, allowing individuals to serve their sentence in the community under supervision, while parole is the conditional release of an inmate from prison before completing their sentence, subject to compliance with strict terms. Both are managed by state agencies to ensure public safety and offender accountability.

  1. What is the difference between probation and parole?
    Probation is a court-ordered alternative to incarceration, allowing an offender to serve their sentence in the community under supervision. Parole is the supervised release of an inmate from prison before the completion of their sentence, granted by a parole board based on good behavior and rehabilitation efforts.

  2. Who qualifies for state probation?
    Probation is typically granted to individuals convicted of lower-level offenses who meet court-established eligibility criteria. Judges consider factors such as criminal history, the nature of the offense, and the likelihood of rehabilitation.

  3. Who determines if an inmate is granted parole?
    A state parole board reviews an inmate’s conduct, rehabilitation progress, and risk to public safety before deciding whether to grant parole. Victim impact statements and recommendations from correctional officials may also influence the decision.

  4. What are the conditions of probation and parole?
    Conditions vary but often include regular meetings with a supervising officer, employment or education requirements, travel restrictions, drug testing, community service, and avoiding further legal trouble.

  5. What happens if someone violates probation or parole?
    Consequences depend on the severity of the violation. Minor infractions may result in warnings or increased supervision, while serious violations, such as committing a new crime, can lead to revocation and incarceration.

  6. Can someone on probation or parole leave the state?
    Travel restrictions apply, and individuals must obtain prior approval from their supervising officer before leaving the state. Unauthorized travel may be considered a violation.

  7. Are probation and parole officers the same?
    While their roles are similar, probation officers supervise individuals sentenced to community supervision instead of incarceration, while parole officers monitor individuals released from prison. Both enforce compliance with court or parole board conditions.

  8. Do probationers and parolees have to pay fees?
    Yes, most states require probationers and parolees to pay supervision fees, which may cover drug testing, electronic monitoring, or rehabilitation programs. Fees vary by state and financial hardship exemptions may be available.

  9. Can probation or parole be shortened or terminated early?
    Some individuals may qualify for early termination based on good behavior, compliance with conditions, and completion of required programs. Judges or parole boards determine eligibility.

  10. What types of rehabilitation programs are available for probationers and parolees?
    Many states offer substance abuse treatment, mental health counseling, vocational training, job placement assistance, and educational programs to support successful reintegration.

  11. What is an intensive supervision program (ISP)?
    Intensive Supervision Programs are stricter forms of probation or parole that require more frequent reporting, home visits, curfews, and electronic monitoring for high-risk individuals.

  12. Can someone on probation or parole vote?
    Voting rights vary by state. Some states allow individuals on probation or parole to vote, while others restore voting rights only after completing all sentence terms, including supervision.

  13. Is electronic monitoring required for all probationers and parolees?
    No, electronic monitoring is typically reserved for high-risk individuals or those under home detention, house arrest, or sex offender supervision.

  14. Can a probationer or parolee own a firearm?
    In most states, individuals on probation or parole are prohibited from possessing firearms. Violating this restriction can result in revocation and additional criminal charges.

  15. What support services are available for parolees after release?
    Many states provide reentry assistance, such as halfway houses, job training, housing support, and counseling services to help parolees transition successfully into society.

  16. How does a probation or parole officer monitor compliance?
    Officers conduct regular check-ins, home visits, drug tests, and employment verification, and may use GPS monitoring or curfews to ensure individuals comply with supervision conditions.
