GED services as well as the Carpentry Program are provided by BOCES and the English 101 and 102 are provided by NCCC. The Sheriff’s Office, in coordination with NCCC and ORLEANS/NIAGARA BOCES provide incarcerated individuals with programs that will prepare them to have a better chance of success upon discharge from the facility.
