Jail allows mothers to take preschool children
Santa Clara County will permit incarcerated mothers to bring their pre school children to a work furlough facility instead of placing them in foster care. Sheriff James Geary said the plan aims to avoid trauma from separation and would house 15 to 20 children in a home like setting with locks and supervision. The program, funded by LEAA and county funds, requires sheriff approval and parental agreement, and excludes school age children due to taunts and safety concerns.
