About Oriana House - CROSSWAEH Community Based Correctional Facility - Male Facility

Oriana House began as an independent, non-profit community corrections agency in 1981 with a primary focus of helping the criminal justice system deal with driving-while-intoxicated offenders.
Today, Oriana House encompasses more than 25 programs that provide a sanction while assisting offenders in developing the skills they need to become productive members of the community.
Community corrections programs are part of an overall strategy for dealing with offenders.
No community can completely avoid chemical dependency or crime, but community corrections programs can minimize their impact and make their neighborhoods safer for residents.
The benefits of community corrections programs include:   
Alleviating jail and prison overcrowding.     Improving the community integration process for offenders.     Providing less expensive placement options for appropriate offenders.     Increasing offender accountability; the failure to complete programming results in additional sanctions.     Addressing chemical dependency, employment, education, and other issues prior to release.     Reducing the probability of future criminal behavior through programming that addresses certain behaviors, attitudes, and thought processes that are associated with re-offending.     Offenders can continue to work while serving a sanction. This allows them to pay taxes, program fees, restitution, court costs, and child support if ordered.
