Summary of Request:

The tablet program will give inmates the ability to include but not limited to; working towards a General Education Development certificate (GED), Life skills and access to religious programming. This Agreement with Legacy Inmate Communication will enhance the programs available towards life improvement for those incarcerated by providing online classes and programs on tablets over a secured and monitored internet connection.
