Work Detail

The Benton County Sheriff’s Office Work Detail Division represents a cooperative venture between the Sheriff’s Office and the community. Deputies lead crews of inmates or program-sanctioned individuals in community projects, such as nonprofit initiatives and highway trash pickup, fostering charitable civic involvement. Beyond potentially reducing sentences, participants acquire skills beneficial upon release, contributing to efforts to curb recidivism. The division, through its community service, saves taxpayer dollars by aiding in municipal projects like construction, landscaping, and cleanup. Other agencies leverage this division for extra manpower, making it a valuable asset to both the Benton County Sheriff’s Office and the community at large.
