Challenges for Today's Jails

Apologies for missing this when it first came around, but Corrections Community, NIC’s valuable blog, has this report up on today’s and tomorrow’s challenges to jail operation in America. Pulled a bunch of sheriffs and jail administrators together and got their thoughts and projections. Highest priority? Getting and keeping good staff. If that surprises you, you need to read the report even more. [While you’re there, check out the latest stuff on “what makes female offenders different” (!) and on the most recent reentry grant announcement.]
