Mission

The Commission of Correction works to provide for a safe, stable and humane correctional system statewide by: monitoring, adjusting and enhancing prison and jail population capacity; overseeing new jail facility development; assisting jails in the implementation of new correctional technologies; investigating prisoner mortality; providing advice on staffing, health and mental health services and advising the Governor on correctional policy.

Budget Highlights

The Executive Budget recommends $2.9 million for the Commission. This is a decrease of $60,000 from the 2011-12 budget. The decrease reflects savings from an anticipated relocation from leased to State-owned space.

The Executive Budget recommends a workforce of 29 FTEs for the Commission which represents no change from the 2011-12 budget.
