CHARLOTTE, N.C. (AP) Two gray houses stand on a small plot of land in northeast Charlotte.
Inside, women swipe paintbrushes across canvases, mince vegetables with steady hands and, on occasion, glue their eyes to TV screens. Outside, they turn their faces upward to the sun, stroll through the green grass and water growing cucumbers in the garden.
There’s not a fence in sight.
To these women, it’s a home. But it’s also a prison.
The Center for Women serves up to 30 incarcerated women at a time from all over North Carolina, helping them adjust to the community before the completion of their sentences. It’s the only residential work-release program of its kind in the state.

university hospital. if you look at the cdc map about where is covid still, if there still is community transmission. the red dots are bad. look at missouri and florida. alabama, mississippi, and georgia. look in utah. i want to come back to the vaccinate map. you see the community transitions. those states happen to be 38% in missouri, 32%, 535%. there s correlation between cases and vaccination rates? right. i m saying we re rapidly approaching a situation where we have two different countries. vaccinated america where things look totally back to normal. the northeast, new england, the mid atlantic states, the west coast, and then big parts of the south and midwest. so missouri is a perfect example. they ve seen a doubling of hospitalizations and case rates in the past couple weeks.
