Century Correctional Institution Inmates Graduate

July 20, 2011

Eleven inmates graduated Tuesday from a new substance abuse program at Century Correctional Institution.

The inmates completed intense substance abuse treatment and training at the facility’s Residential Therapeutic Community. The inmates began the program on September 17, 2010, and they were the first to complete the program at Century Correctional Institution.

Eleven inmates took part in the graduation ceremony Tuesday; five others completed the program but had already been released from prison.

The program’s mission is to give the inmates a better chance for success when they are released. During the program, the inmates do everything as a group, including meals, classroom studies, recreation and housing.
