Inmate Work Crews

“The heart of our Correctional Services Center is the labor we provide to the Nashville Community through our Correctional Services Division. Our inmate labor crews save taxpayers and non-profits over $1.5 million annually. Additionally, our hope is to teach inmates valuable vocational tools that will assist them upon release. We must not forget other services provided by the CSD such as maintenance, laundry, warehouse, and fleet management. Without these important contributions, the Sheriff’s Office would cease to operate.” -Sheriff Daron Hall

The Correctional Services Division provides a variety of services via inmate labor throughout Davidson County. In addition, it provides limited services to Metro agencies and non-profit organizations. With a limited budget and resources, this division in fiscal year 2021-22 made a great impact on the community.

 

Some of the things that inmate work crews might be utilized for include:

  • maintenance and care of all DCSO properties
  • litter removal from public streets and rights-of-way;
  • laundry services DCSO facilities, saving money by using female inmate labor;
