Unless the inmate returns after working hours to the institution under jurisdiction of the department, the department shall coordinate with a district department for the quartering and supervision of the inmate in local housing facilities. The board of parole shall include as a specific term or condition in the work release plan of any inmate the place where the inmate is to be housed when not on the work assignment. The board of parole shall not place an inmate on work release for longer than six months in any twelve-month period unless approval is given by a majority of the full board of parole. Inmates may be temporarily released to the supervision of a responsible person to participate in family and selected community, religious, educational, social, civic, and recreational activities when it is determined that the participation will directly facilitate the release transition from institution to community. The department shall provide a copy of the work release plan and a copy of any restitution plan of payment to the district department quartering and supervising the inmate.
