Arizona Correctional Industries (ACI) – a unique, self-funded, 30-year-old business within the Arizona Department of Corrections – employees nearly 2,000 inmates at any given time. They work in safe, positive work and learning environments, gaining skills that will help them secure employment upon their release — many in highly skilled trades. The wages inmates earn at – what for many are – their first paid jobs, go toward savings for their release, room and board offsets and restitution funds. Each year millions of dollars in "profits" generated from sales of ACI products and services go directly to Arizona's General Fund helping to keep state taxes low. Taxpayers also benefit from more than $8 million in inmate wage deductions that support Court Ordered Restitution, Victim's Compensation Fund and more. Inmates who participate in ACI programs are 30% less likely to return to their previous lives of crime, saving taxpayers millions more in future court and incarceration costs. Begun as a program to help rehabilitate prisoners, ACI today is a vibrant business providing Innovative Solutions to public and private business across the state, while helping inmates learn the job skills to lead Productive Lives.
