Program Background
Geiger Corrections Center operates both in-custody and out-of-custody Work Crew programs. In-custody offenders work within the community during the day and are housed at Geiger Corrections when not working. The out-of-custody offenders report to the facility daily for work. All crews are supervised by a corrections officer while in the community.
From 2014 - 2018, 300,050 inmate man hours were used on these community based crews. These work crews perform manual and semi-skilled labor such as clean up, litter pick up, graffiti removal, limited maintenance, and other projects for non-profit and government agencies. Between 2014 - 2018, 2,193,861 pounds (or 1,096.9 tons) of litter/garbage/debris was collected from county roadways and illegal dump sites. This has been accomplished through a variety of funding sources to include Spokane County, the City of Spokane, the City of Spokane Valley, and the Washington State Department of Ecology.
