Minimum Requirements

• Release date is less than three (3) years.

The Electronic Monitoring (EM) Program allows offenders who meet certain requirements to serve jail time at home. EM Placement is a designation therefore a privilege based on suitability. Applicants do not have a right to be on EM. Offenders can maintain employment, access community based treatment, perform CWS, address medical issues and attend religious functions. There is a weekly cost associated with the program. A fee of $12.00 per day will be assessed, for a total cost of $94.00 per week. Inability to pay the fee does not prevent placement on the program.

Telephone Equipment Requirements

• You will be given specific instructions regarding the equipment prior to beginning the program. It is highly recommended that you do not proceed until you have been advised by EM staff.
