About Mecklenburg County Community Support Services – Jail North – Charlotte
Mecklenburg County Community Support Services – Jail North is a prison in Charlotte, North Carolina. If you’re an inmate here you can enroll in recovery services to help you break your old patterns for good as you prepare to reintegrate into society. They can also help you work through other challenges like chemical dependency. Here you’ll find outpatient counseling and educational services for adolescents and adults.
I like that all of their programs are divided into age specific segments which means the treatments are more personalized and relevant. Another good thing about this program is that students don’t have to miss out on their studies while they’re in treatment. They make sure that clients who sit in on these classes receive academic credit and are counted as present for attendance. So you won’t end up behind on your schoolwork once you’re back home.
If you’re an adult serving a sentence here you’ll participate in different counseling programs. They offer an evidence based program for men that allows them to reflect on their past obstacles and consider how they could change things in the future. You can also attend life skills training to face your challenges and take positive steps forward. Some of the topics you’ll discuss include how to deal with anger, how to create a budget and how to mend broken relationships.
