Part 6/10:
Daily Work and Earnings
Rehabilitation programs involve work activities such as embroidery for hospitals and manufacturing bed sheets, pajamas, and other textiles. Inmates receive allowances—about $30 per month—that they can spend on snacks, toiletries, or saving for their release. For many, these programs serve as a semblance of normal life and a way to contribute financially to their families.
Prison Maintenance and Hygiene
Daily routines include strip searches, changing into proper attire, and maintaining hygiene. Inmates manage their toiletries carefully, using adjusted storage solutions to maximize space and cleanliness. Hygiene routines are vital for mental well-being and preventing issues like lice or infections.
