Who is Colorado Auto Sales?

Colorado Auto Sales is part of            the Division of Correctional Industries. The            Division is a cash-funded entity, with enterprise status, that employs inmates            at different facilities throughout the state            of Colorado.  Earnings are generated            from the sale of goods and services produced by inmates to cover operating            costs.         

Inmates are offered training and            work opportunities in a variety of occupational areas where they acquire            marketable skills, knowledge, and work-ethic related abilities.  Opportunities range from caring for calves            and wild horses in the agriculture sector to lay out, cad designing, manufacturing,            and installing panel systems in the manufacturing area.         

The primary mission of            Correctional Industries, is to:  reduce            inmate idleness and the demand for general-funded programs by working as many            inmates as possible in self-supporting and productive industries; train them in            meaningful skills, work ethics, and quality standards which better enable them            to secure long-term employment after release from prison; and finally, operate            in a business-like manner so that enough revenues are realized each year to            meet the on-going needs of the Division.
