Money saved
Virginia only needed 5 graduates to
remain out of prison for 3 years to
pay for the entire program.
Currently, at least 40 graduates are
working, resulting in an estimated
$1.2M of savings each year.
Recidivism reduced
JCI helped Virginia DoC
implement our Green HVAC
Program, resulting in 22.8%
recidivism (national avg. is 68%
per BJS).
