DOC's BCC Partners with Task Force

The DOC is proud to announce that its Bureau of Community Corrections has partnered with the Northeast Counterdrug Joint Task Force. As result of the partnership, task force officials will conduct four six-hour trainings for the DOC, with the first training set for Feb. 15. The free trainings are for corrections and parole supervision employees only and will be held regionally to make trainings accessible for staff across the state.

The training is entitled "Opioid Threat in the Community," and will provide insight into the challenges faced in the community corrections field, specifically discussing national, statewide and local heroin trends, prescription opioids and other opioid compounds.

We will provide additional information on these trainings in future issues of this newsletter.
