Vision

To be the Benchmark Correctional Agency in the United States

The Wyoming Department of Corrections will provide a seamless correctional system aimed at improving community safety through employee training, recognition and retention, evidence-based crime prevention, risk/need assessment, and recidivism reduction strategies that focus on:

• Workforce excellence;
• Role modeling and reinforcing pro-social behavior;
• Redirecting behavior that is not pro-social in nature;
• Collaborative intervention to at-risk populations;
• Thorough and on-going individual risk/needs assessments;
• Risk appropriate housing and community supervision/mentoring;
• Individualized quality services to victims, offenders and inmates; and,
• Successful collaborative re-integration back into society.
