Did you know Spotsylvania County spends over $6 million as their share to the Rappahannock Regional Jail each year?
I'd like to see this number reduced, but returning citizens that served their time and want to reintegrate into society lack the support structure to do that effectively. Luckily for us, we have an organization Failsafe-Era that has been working for many years to reduce recidivism by providing our returning citizens with positive options when they are released. This program is much more economical than the revolving door of exiting and returning to jail. Check out their programs and consider supporting them.
