Rockville inmates gain job skills at new learning center wing
Rockville prison opens a 65 prisoner wing of the Model Learning Center with basic reading and writing classes in the morning and bookkeeping in the afternoon. The program launched in 1969 has helped inmates earn diplomas and college degrees, while programs like Toastmasters and Junior Chamber meet at the jail. A $20,000 Safe Streets Act grant funded the expansion led by Frank Snyder, aiming to reform lives and aid post release employment.
