Northern Nevada Transitional Housing (NNTH) opened in October 2015. It is located in Reno and functions as a community assignment facility, housing inmates who are employed in the community. From earned income, inmates make restitution payments to victims and to criminal justice agencies and may accumulate funds above restitution payments to facilitate their release in the community. NNTH provides opportunities for vocational training through the local community; educational opportunities include the pursuit of a high school equivalency, high school diploma, college certificates of achievement, and associate, bachelor's and master's degrees; and treatment services through the local community. The mission of NNTH is to provide for public safety by providing a transitional housing facility where offenders are given the opportunity for positive change and integration back to the community through work, education, and programming to become productive members of society upon release.
