The Resident Betterment Organization (RBO) at SCI Mahanoy sponsored a Veteran Inmate Breakfast on Nov. 12, to honor the service of incarcerated veterans. The RBO officers, in conjunction with their advisor (Brett Matukewicz), have been planning this event for several months with the aid of the SCI Mahanoy Veterans Coordinator Unit Manager Bill Beck. Fifty-five of the approximately 150 veteran inmates housed at SCI Mahanoy participated in this breakfast. The RBO is hoping to make this an annual event. The RBO currently sponsors a Veterans Game Night annually in conjunction with Memorial Day, which has had great success, and it continues to explore event options to honor the veteran inmates assigned to SCI Mahanoy.
