Full Question:
Answer:
In New York, the temporary release program allows inmates who are within two years of their earliest release date to become reintegrated back into their families and communities on a gradual basis. Work release allows an inmate to leave a facility for up to 14 hours in any day to work at a job in the community or gain on-the-job training.
There are detailed guidelines for the Department of Corrections to consider when determining whether a person is eligible for work release. Please see the information at the following link to determine applicablilty:
