Join Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton as we delve into the crucial role of correction officers in the rehabilitation of inmates. Discover how these law enforcement professionals go beyond security and surveillance to actively contribute to the rehabilitation process. Learn about the five key ways in which correction officers can support inmates' journeys towards becoming productive members of society once again. What You'll Learn: Creating a Safe Environment: Correction officers are pivotal in maintaining order and safety within the facility. By enforcing rules and managing conflicts, they create a stable environment that is conducive to rehabilitation programs. Role Modeling: Officers can act as role models through consistent, fair, and respectful treatment of inmates. This positive interaction helps teach inmates social norms and behaviors that are crucial for reintegration into society. Facilitating Educational Programs: Correction officers often facilitate access to educational and vocational training programs. These programs are essential for providing inmates with the skills needed to succeed outside the prison system. Supporting Therapy and Treatment: Many inmates require mental health or substance abuse treatment. Correction officers can support rehabilitation by encouraging participation in therapy sessions and by monitoring compliance with treatment programs. Encouraging Family Connections: Family support is important for inmate rehabilitation. Correction officers can facilitate communication and visits, helping to maintain these critical connections that can provide emotional support and stability upon release. Join Us: Tune in to "Behind Bars" to gain a deeper understanding of the complex role of correction officers in rehabilitation efforts. Whether you're involved in law enforcement, interested in corrections, or engaged in community and social services, this episode sheds light on the significant impact these officers have on the lives of inmates and the broader implications for community safety and well-being.

The department manages six prisons across Vermont, with more than 1,000 incarcerated people in the system. The department is perpetually facing challenges, which only increased during the pressures of the Covid-19 pandemic.
