WBBJ TV March 11, 2021 MILAN, Tenn. — The Orchard House is having success transitioning men back into the workforce after being in jail. In Gibson County, incarcerated and previously incarcerated men have the chance to gain employment and learn skills, and that makes re-entering the workforce easier. Currently, 40 men live at the Orchard House. Each paycheck, 25% of what they earn is applied towards whatever they may owe the court, whether that’s child support, court costs or fines. “They get out of jail, they can’t keep up with what they owe the courts and they just get back in that cycle. Getting locked back up, a lot of it just for monetary reasons, so we try to pay those fines down for them,” said Gibson County Sheriff Paul Thomas.
