Benefits of a County Day Reporting Center
A BI Day Reporting Center offers benefits for all stakeholders
in the local corrections system, from the jail administrator managing overcrowded facilities to commissioners charged with managing tight budgets to the judiciary and probation seeking effective sentencing options.
A County Day Reporting Center can provide a cost-effective
way for your county to ease jail overcrowding while addressing the root of repeat criminal behavior.
A County Day Reporting Center can:
- Alleviate jail overcrowding immediately

- Reduce recidivism through proven and intensive treatment and training programs
- Reduce costs of sending inmates to surrounding jurisdictions
- Provide space in the jail for criminals that should be incarcerated
- Help avoid using risky jail population management strategies such as double-bunking or early release
