BACKGROUND: The primary focus of the North Las Vegas Community Correctional Center is rehabilitation rather than incarceration. The I AM POSSIBLE program was established in 2021 through the Residential Substance Abuse Treatment Grant Program and is the first of its kind in Nevada municipal jails. I AM POSSIBLE provides offenders who have a substance abuse disorder with tools for recovery, with the goal of reducing recidivism by 50%.

Offenders may enter the program voluntarily or through a court order. Participants receive individualized treatment plans including cognitive and behavioral therapy. The 30-day treatment plan is meant to provide the incarcerated community with introductory tools for substance abuse recovery and they are encouraged to continue rehabilitation post-release.
