GREEN COVE SPRINGS – CareerSource Northeast Florida hosted its first Employer Informational Session at the Clay County Jail. Inmates were educated about various jobs, the skills needed and how to apply for a job. We were very fortunate to have Amazon, Coca-Cola, JTA, Meineke Car Care Center, TLC Landscaping and Thorne Metal Systems, Inc. as potential employers. While inmates are held accountable for their actions, we also focus on rehabilitating them during their time in custody. They have the option to attend various classes and vocational programs that provide them with skills that can be used once they have completed their sentence. Helping them reintegrate into their communities and their ability to work and become self-sufficient is critical to lowering the recidivism rate, thereby creating a safer community.
