Helping budgets has become the rage lately , finding ways to keep county ,city ,and even states budgets in line. How changing the way they punish minor pot offenses to drawing productive people back to their city or state will help. Today the need is saving more money and doing it with a purpose in mind. Today the focus is on saving your court much needed funds and helping families in need can both be done at the same time ? Yes and it is very simple.
Sentencing offenders to community service hours can be a way to save a substantial amount of the budget. Sending people to jail is costly and very high in liability. It also causes in many cases the offender to lose their job and thus adding to the problems the economy has today. This action can even displace entire families because they lose their bread winner to unnecessary incarceration. There are smarter more helpful solutions.
Community service sentencing really only has one problem. There are very few places to do community service in the community. American Angel Works a foundation that helps families in crisis has developed a unique way of combining an offenders community service hours and helping these children. It’s simple really.
American Angel Works supports families in every state and most communities. A probation officer ,judge ,or district attorney loves sentencing people to community service or having them do their service hours with American Angel Works because they know that it is their area that will benefit from it. Mark Baker with North Georgia Judicial Services explained that he met people in his area receiving funds .
The average daily cost to incarcerate someone is $50 providing they do not need medical attention or file a law suit for an event. If you used community service more in a small municipality and could keep 10 people per day out of jail they would save nearly $200,000 by simply offering an alternative. A larger municipality that could keep 100 people out would have an extra $2,000,000 (2 Million) with no cost to implement this program whatsoever.
A story that starts out bad and ends great is what this is. If these courts need to balance their budgets ,want to help their community ,and some families in need this is truly a fairy tail ending for everyone.
