VETS GAIN JOB SKILLS, GET “CLEAN START” IN JAIL PROGRAM
Monday, October 4, 2010— Cook County Sheriff Thomas J. Dart unveiled a new laundry program at the Cook County Jail today, utilizing inmates to wash all clothing instead of using outside contractors. The “Clean Start” program utilizes about 20 US military veterans who are in the Cook County Jail on non-violent charges.

We can help them with mental health services, then give them job skills and the support they need to get back on their feet. We’re focusing on rehabilitation instead of incarceration and we’re saving taxpayer money — two of the highest priorities I have as sheriff.” ARAMARK Correctional Services, which manages the program, agreed to hire two people who have gone through the “Clean Start” program, once they are released from custody. One “graduate” will work each of the two shifts at the jail, along with an ARAMARK supervisor. In addition, ARAMARK …
