— Rock County's RECAP, Rock County Education and Addictions Program, is so successful it's being used as a model for other similar programs in the state.

Rock County Sheriff's Office, Captain Russ Steeber, says the program was featured at a recent Correctional Education Association conference.

The RECAP program uses a holistic approach to substance addictions, treatment, anger management, cognitive thinking, and education. The program has lowered the recidivism rate for county inmates.
