The mission of the Board of Corrections is to provide visionary
leadership focused on local correctional effectiveness. We bring
together leaders in state and local corrections, and the sectors
partnering with them or serving them, to jointly explore pivotal
corrections issues while modeling and encouraging persistent
efforts that bridge the gap between theory and practice. We provide
opportunities to develop knowledge on how corrections organizations
can be effectively managed across systems that would otherwise
be disconnected from one another. These efforts are outcome driven,
research based, and designed to inspire mutual innovation, experimentation,
and cooperation while optimizing their influence toward positive
change.
