Christian County Jail looking for employers interested in work release program

The Christian County Jail will be hosting an informational meeting later this month with employers in the area who’d be interested in hiring jail inmates as employees.

Jailer Adam Smith says the meeting is Wednesday, February 22 at 8 a.m. and it’s for any employer who is open to hiring inmates who are eligible for the work release programs.

He says there are eligible inmates eager to do work release, but there aren’t enough employers participating in the program at this point.

For more information, employers can contact Smith at the jail.
