Acts of valor are a common occurrence in our profession.

Every year throughout our correctional facilities officers perform great acts of courage, usually under extreme conditions and without recognition for their efforts and sense of personal safety. All too often, these acts of heroism are overlooked, and unfortunately never given recognition by the general public, the media, their departments, and regrettably their own unions.

As Corrections Professionals we are constantly striving for image enhancement, updated state of the art safety equipment and supplies, and ultimately keeping the public informed about the dangers surrounding the corrections profession.
