OVERVIEW
The Wichita Work Release Facility (WWRF), a satellite unit of the Winfield Correctional Facility, is an all-male, minimum-custody state prison located in Wichita in south-central Kansas. The capacity is 250 minimum-custody male residents. The purpose of the work release program is to prepare selected residents for release and to assist them in making a successful transition from the institutional environment back into free society. Work release offers a unique opportunity to realize correctional objectives while permitting the participants to leave confinement and work in the community under close supervision and structure.
