The contractors provide valuable State-mandated services to inmates such as ministry services, legal aid,
vocational training, and basic education. Penal Code Section 4025(e) states that funds and property deposited in
the Inmate Welfare Fund will be expended by the Office of the Sheriff-Coroner primarily for the benefit,
education, and welfare of inmates confined in the jail. The Inmate Welfare Fund receives the majority of its
revenues from inmate telephone commissions and commissary sales. The goal of these contract services is to
improve the opportunities for inmates to reintegrate into society, reduce recidivism, and increase their chances
to become productive citizens.
