Bill overview
The SCORE Act of 2021 creates a grant program to help county jails offer career training programs to non-violent inmates. The goal is to reduce recidivism – the rate at which people return to jail after release – by providing skills like welding, HVAC, or plumbing. Counties with inmate populations of 500 or more are eligible to apply for funding, which can be used to develop or expand existing training programs.
