FORSYTH COUNTY, Ga. — The Forsyth County Sheriff’s Office is putting inmates to work at their pet adoption and resource center.
Qualified inmates from the Forsyth County Jail will be taken daily to the center, where they will help staff clean kennels for dogs and cats.
The inmates will be supervised by a deputy while they work to make sure the animals have a clean and safe environment.
The sheriff’s office says the program doesn’t just help the animals, but also gives the inmates a skill they can take with them when they are released.
