Establishing a colocated community facility and work release center in the general administration building on the state capitol campus.
SB 5760 establishes the Washington Capitol Reentry Center in the historic general administration building on the state capitol campus in Olympia. It creates a colocated community facility and work release center specifically for qualifying adult and juvenile inmates, aiming to place them near elected officials for legislative engagement. The bill directs the departments of Children, Youth, and Families and Corrections to jointly operate the center, using the existing building (noted for its architectural significance) and requiring specific community notice before implementation. This is a procedural change relocating an existing program to a new location, not altering eligibility or sentencing laws.
