Who we help

Ozaukee County Jail Literacy Program

 

Programs

On April 8, 1992, the Ozaukee County Jail Literacy Program, Inc. opened its doors to provide educational opportunities to incarcerated adults who are over 18yrs. of age and do not have their high school diplomas.

 

Success Stories

As of April, 2011, the OCJLP has graduated 232 student-inmates at the Ozaukee County Justice Center in Port Washington, with many other student-inmates finishing their diplomas at the technical schools upon release.

  • I will never be able to decribe the impact this program has had on my life. I can help my kids with school work, thanks to this program.
  • I truly believe that everyone has the potential to do even better than I did in this class, through the power of reading. Reading will improve every area of your studies.
  • I am so grateful for this chance I was given. I am planning on getting my welding degree at MATC this summer.
  • Starting with my initial work search, I can tell potential employers that YES I do have an HSED, which is an amazing sense of accomplishment.
