The Sheriff's Anti-Violence Effort (SAVE) program graduates 15 to 20 inmates every six weeks and 68 percent of those offenders stay out of jail a year after graduation. Its mission is to help inmates become aware, responsible, and accountable for their violence, and it is based on power and control issues. Inmates may refer themselves to SAVE or be recommended by judges, district attorneys, family, correctional staff, or case managers.
