Inmates train guide dogs for the blind

McCAIN—Six Labrador retriever puppies became the newest inmates at McCain Correctional Hospital March 19. The puppies are part of Puppies Assisting With Sight (“PAWS”), a joint effort between the Department of Correction and Southeastern Guide Dogs, Inc. to train guide dogs for the blind.

“The Department of Correction tries to provide opportunities for inmates not only to learn useful skills, but also to give something back to society,” said Secretary Theodis Beck. “The PAWS program is an ideal opportunity for the offenders to do just that.”

Correctional staff selected seven inmates to work with staff from Southeastern Guide Dogs, Inc., teaching basic obedience, house training and socialization to the puppies. After 12 months with the inmates, the dogs will return to Southeastern’s home office in Florida for six months of additional training. Each dog that completes the training will be partnered with a blind person to act as a guide.

One month into the program, the dogs are progressing well. “We’re working with them on leash and collar management and commands like sit, stay and forward,” said Roger McClinton, one of the inmates selected to train the dogs. “The dogs are following instructions, but we’re also learning. It’s teaching us patience as well as authority and things like that.”

The inmates earn $1 a day for their jobs, seven days a week, but other costs associated with the program are minimal. The puppy housing area and training site, funded through the Inmate Welfare Fund, cost approximately $28,000 to build. Southeastern, local businesses and community organizations have joined forces to provide dog food, supplies and veterinary services at no cost to PAWS. Employees and other volunteers will take the puppies home on occasion to help socialize them.

For all those involved in PAWS at McCain, the program offers tremendous rewards, from the community members that help care for the dogs to the blind people that eventually will receive the dogs as guides. It seems that the inmates, however, benefit most of all.

“A dog is a good friend,” said McClinton. “He enjoys his job and he makes you enjoy yours. We’re not just training dogs, we’re training ourselves too. And we’re doing something good for the community.”

Pay incentives for correctional officers to remain intact

RALEIGH—When Gov. Michael Easley released his proposed state budget Mar. 5, many correctional officers were surprised to find that it contained what appeared to be a cut to the weekend pay incentives for correctional officers. As it now stands, the Department of Correction will continue to pay this weekend incentive, regardless of the outcome of this year’s budget.

“We will continue to offer weekend pay incentives to our correctional officers,” said Secretary Beck. “If this pay incentive is not funded by the legislature this year, we will continue to pay it from other funds, as the legislature currently allows. Our officers will not lose their pay incentives.”

Two years ago, the state legislature authorized the weekend shift and holiday pay incentives to help improve officer recruitment and retention, but lawmakers did not appropriate money to pay for the incentives. Instead, legislators authorized the department to pay the incentives with money from lapsed salaries.

Lapse salary dollars are generated by more than 1,000 vacant positions throughout the department. While the department receives an appropriation for these positions, it does not issue paychecks when the positions are vacant. The money generated by these vacancies can be used to pay for other areas in the department’s budget where funding falls short — including inmate medical costs, employee overtime and the jail backlog. The department is required to report regularly to the legislature on the use of these lapse salary funds.

The department will continue to work with legislators in an effort to adequately fund the officer pay incentives and other items where funding is not adequate.

“The pay incentives are really important,” said Sgt. M.T. Allen at Umstead Correctional Center. “It’s really hard for us to keep officers who are interested in working on the weekends.”

Leadership program graduates first class

ASHEBORO—The department’s newest leadership program graduated its first classes in March. The Correctional Supervisors Training Program (CSTP), a six-month program, is designed to provide leadership training for first-line supervisors – those recently promoted to sergeant, program supervisor and food service manager.

“This will make you better managers, supervisors and employees,” Piedmont region director Jim Pierce told the CSTP graduates in Asheboro. “Everyone will benefit from what you’ve gone through.”

There are plans to expand CSTP in the future to include Community Corrections, medical services and other sections within the department. The 72 graduates in the program’s pilot classes came from 22 facilities in the Division of Prisons.

NEWS BRIEFS

Nash CI helps local schools

NASHVILLE—The Inmate Service Club at Nash Correctional Institution donated nearly $500 to Nashville Elementary School Jan 10. The service Club raised the money through a pizza sale to the inmate population. The money will fund school supplies for any children unable to afford their own crayons, pencils, paper or other supplies.

Foothills and Caldwell help keep Burke County warm

MORGANTON—In January, Foothills Correctional Institution and Caldwell Correctional Center combined resources to provide needy citizens in the Burke County area with firewood for home heating during the winter. Inmates from Caldwell’s community work squads loaded approximately 50 truckloads of cut firewood that was transported to county charities for distribution.

The firewood project was a collaboration of several local organizations. IMPACT West trainees stockpiled the wood during disciplinary treatment exercises. After IMPACT closed in August 2002, Mike Price, Foothills’ correctional administrative services manager, assumed transition responsibilities of the IMPACT building, grounds and equipment and orchestrated the firewood project. Foothills Supt. Ricky Anderson, Western Region director Steve Bailey, Community Resource Council members and local ministerial agencies then coordinated the distribution of the wood from the grounds to sites identified by Burke United Christian Ministries and the Morganton Christian Outreach Center.

“As soon as we dropped the wood off, it was distributed to families in need,” said Anderson. “We appreciate the opportunity to give back to the community.”

Wake County officers adopt a highway

RALEIGH—Probation and parole officers in Wake County cleared 24 bags of trash from I-540 March 8. The officers adopted the two-mile stretch between Falls of Neuse Road and Capital Boulevard as part of the Adopt-a-Highway Program.

Cindy Duke, Maggie Farmer, Steve Walker, Rita Dimoulas, Pam McSwain, Martha Sullivan, Tony Taylor and Doug Pardue worked three hours to clear both sides of the stretch of road. The next clean up is scheduled for May 3, during the Department of Transportation’s Spring 2003 Litter Sweep.

Wilkes County DCC takes the Polar Bear Plunge

KERR SCOTT LAKE—Wilkes County Community Corrections employees helped raise over $40,000 for Special Olympics at the fourth annual Polar Bear Plunge March 8.

With water temperatures in the thirties, more than 150 people took the plunge, including WXII meteorologist Michelle Kennedy; Tom Horner, district attorney for the 23rd District; and PPO Bill Lyons, Torch Run chair for the 23rd district. Doctors, lawyers, business people and guests from Hickory, Winston-Salem, Greensboro and even England also participated in the event.

In addition to the Polar Bear Plunge, the event featured a barefoot ski tournament and a patriotic performance by the Carolina Ski Show. Major sponsors included Carlyle&Co., Wal-Mart, Carolina West Wireless, Pet Dairy, Coca-Cola, BB&T and Brand Jewelry.

Pasquotank wins Battle of the Badges

ROANOKE RAPIDS—Pasquotank CI won the second annual Battle of the Badges basketball tournament March 8, defeating Odom CI 66-56. The tournament, which serves as a fundraiser for the 2003 Law Enforcement Torch Run for Special Olympics, featured teams from Pasquotank CI, Tillery CC, Odom CI, Caledonia CI and Halifax County Probation/Parole. The most valuable players for their respective teams were Teton Reid (Pasquotank); Shelton Marshall (Tillery); Melvin Green (Caledonia); Jeff Ramsey (Odom) and Jeff Boyd (Halifax Probation/Parole). MVP Reid scored 20 points for the winning team.

Spotlight on DCC-Judicial District 17

Judicial District 17B, which includes Stokes and Surry counties, has offices in Mt. Airy, Dobson, Danbury and Walnut Cove. Led by judicial district manager David Willard, a staff of fifty supervises approximately 2,100 offenders at any given time.

David Willard (right), judicial district manager, and office assistant Angela Golding handle all administrative duties for District 17B from their office in Mt. Airy. When they are not at work, Willard likes to garden and walk, while Golding enjoys reading, walking and spending time with her two children.

CPPO John Cowden and office assistant Amanda Greenwood make sure probation and parole cases run smoothly in Stokes County. CPPO for the past two years, Cowden is an avid fisherman and fan of Ernest Hemingway. “I’ve read everything he put on paper,” he says. Greenwood, meanwhile, helps coach her daughter’s fast pitch softball team in her spare time.

The Stokes County Unit (Facility 517BB), located in the Stokes County Government Center in Danbury, is a one-stop shop. “We’re fortunate to have everything in one building--Clerk’s Office, magistrate, jails, DAs and courtrooms,” says CPPO John Cowden. “We all know each other and we work well together because of that.” Two intensive teams are located in Walnut Cove.

Because Stokes County includes so many mountains, officers can log up to 2,200 miles a month checking curfews and supervising offenders. The county sees a lot of alcohol and drug-related offenses, but not many larcenies. “There aren’t that many stores to break into,” says Cowden.

Several members of the Stokes County Unit are active in the local Fraternal Order of Police chapter and participate in fund raisers to provide for less fortunate children at Christmas.

Left to right: Gaynell Dancy, coordinator; Carolyn Bode, office assistant; and Wanda Groce, coordinator. Darcy, Bode and Groce oversee the Community Service Work Program in Surry County, supervising over 200 Surry offenders sentenced to work in the community as part of their sentences.

As a PPOI, Sheila Myers (left) processes new cases in Surry County Court. She supervises a caseload of community punishment offenders. In her spare time, she serves as co-leader of her daughter’s Girl Scout troop and assists with the youth group at her church.

Drew Poindexter (right), an ICO in Surry County, spends his days making home contacts with offenders and confirming compliance with curfews and other court-ordered conditions. In his spare time, he is an avid Ham radio enthusiast.

ISO Roger Thomas (left) is one of five intensive surveillance officers in Surry County. When he is not supervising offenders, he works as a security officer at Surry County Courthouse in Dobson. An avid outdoorsman, Thomas enjoys hunting and fishing in the limited spare time he has.

Gene Isbell wears this pin of his son Nicholas, a 25-year-old medic who is serving in Operation Iraqi Freedom. The Stokes office has rallied around the soldier, sending him packages and writing to him.

“I thought I saw him on TV several times,” says Isbell. “I’m very proud of him and I worry about him and everyone else who serves our country. I know what he goes through.”

Military dedication runs in the Isbell family; Isbell served 26 years in the Army and his oldest daughter is a veteran of Desert Storm.

District 17 also supports PPOII Eddie Blackburn, who has served in the National Guard for 26 years and counting. Blackburn is assigned to the 105th Engineer Group in Winston-Salem.

Management in Motion

Sandy Dixon leads Victim Services

RALEIGH—Secretary Theodis Beck named Sandy Dixon director of the Office of Victim Services effective Feb. 1.

As director, Dixon will work closely with the Division of Prisons, the Division of Community Corrections and other sections to help ensure that victims of crime are more involved in the criminal justice process and that they understand the department’s policies and operations.

“My goal is to not only provide services to victims, but also to assist department employees in their work with victims,” said Dixon.

Dixon has 10 years experience working with victims and offenders. For the last four years she has worked at the Governor’s Crime Commission as a victims program planner. Prior to that she worked for Summit House, a community- based sentencing program, in community relations and development. She also has worked at rape crisis centers in Durham and Orange counties.

Dixon received a bachelor’s degree in psychology in 1992 from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She replaces Karen Taylor George, who became executive director of the North Carolina Association of County Directors of Social Services in September 2002.

Frank Rogers makes a personnel move

RALEIGH—Frank Rogers, former personnel supervisor for the department, has made a personnel move of his own. On Feb. 1, he became personnel director for the N.C. Department of Revenue.

Rogers began his career in 1977 as a probation/parole officer in Bladen County and then moved to Hoke County, where he and his wife Mary Lu, chief of inmate classification for the Division of Prisons, worked together for three years. He became a parole case analyst in 1980, a personnel analyst in 1985 and chief of classification and operations in 1989. In 19??, he was named personnel supervisor for the department.

The East Carolina graduate is grateful for the opportunities the department gave him. “I’ve been with the department during a period of unprecedented growth and that’s what made this job challenging and rewarding,” he says. “Being in such a large and diverse agency has been such a rewarding experience for me.”

Michael York transitions to private sector

BADIN—Correctional administrator Michael York retired Feb. 28. After more than 25 years of service, he knows what he will miss most.

“I will miss the people,” said York. “These people become more of a family to you than your actual family.”

York broke barriers when he became the first black correctional officer at Cabarrus Correctional Center in 1976 and the first black sergeant three years later. He moved to Southern CI in 1982 as a lieutenant and became unit manager in 1984. He moved up the ranks as assistant superintendent at Stanley (1988), superintendent at Charlotte CC (1989), superintendent at Rowan CC (1991) and correctional administrator for the South Piedmont area (1994). He was named correctional administrator at Albemarle in 1998.

York may be leaving the department, but he has not left corrections. On March 3, he became director of transitional services for Piedmont Ex-Offender Transitional Services Programs, a nonprofit organization dedicated to helping offenders reintegrate into society.

A native of Rowan County, York now lives in Concord with his wife. When he is not occupied with his two children, he likes to golf and participate in church activities. He also serves on several boards and is an active member of a Masonic lodge.

Emilio Pagan returns to Morrison CI

HOFFMAN—Correction Secretary Theodis Beck has named Emilio Pagan superintendent of Morrison Correctional Institution effective March 1.

“Emilio Pagan returns to Morrison and brings experience and knowledge of the intricacies of running this facility,” said Secretary Beck. “I am confident he’ll be a good leader for the employees and will build on the relationships already established in the community.”

Pagan joined the Department of Correction in 1974 as a correctional officer at Sandhills Youth Institution. He was promoted to sergeant at Sandhills and later became a program supervisor and classification coordinator at Morrison Youth Institution. In 1992, he moved to Columbus Correctional Institution as assistant superintendent for programs. As an assistant superintendent, he helped open the new Lumberton Correctional Institution in 1993 and became its leader in July 2001.

“I’m excited about the many challenges I expect in this position,” said Pagan. “I’m also looking forward to rejoining the professional staff I had the pleasure of working with in the past.”

Pagan attended high school in New York City and graduated from the University of North Carolina at Pembroke with a degree in sociology. He lives in Pinehurst and has two adult sons. Pagan replaces Gary Miller who was promoted to correctional administrator of Southern Correctional Institution.

For Mae McLendon, volunteering is her life’s work

RALEIGH—If things seem a little quiet on Morgan Street these days, it might be because Mae McLendon has left the building. Director of the Office of Citizen Participation, McLendon retired Jan. 31.

McLendon began her career in corrections in 1977, recruiting community volunteers under a federal grant. After the position became state-funded in 1979, she worked in programs services, serving as a programs consultant to Secretary Amos Reed and later a volunteer services consultant for DOP. In addition to volunteer services, McLendon coordinated ThinkSmart, Napoleon Hill, the Community Resource Council and other programs. She also directed the inmate creative writing program.

Not one to sit on her hands, McLendon now serves as volunteer coordinator for the Inter-Faith Council of Orange County. Her responsibilities include crisis intervention, food bank, the community kitchen, the shelter and transitional housing.

A graduate of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, McLendon holds a bachelor’s degree in sociology and a master’s in social work. The Chapel Hill resident has one daughter, Anissa, who is a police officer in Carrboro.

When she is not working, McLendon is very active in church activities at St. Paul A.M.E. Church in Chapel Hill. She also serves as precinct chair for the Democratic Party and is a member of the boards of several organizations.

Author joins CJPP as division coordinator

ASHEVILLE- Published author and part-time criminal justice instructor Marie Maher has hit the ground running in her new role as a coordinator for the Criminal Justice Partnership Program (CJPP). Maher will oversee the partnership programs in the participating counties in Judicial Division IV.

“I truly believe in this program and what it can do for people,” said Maher. “I see an ongoing need for awareness of the benefits.”

Maher says she’ll use her background in writing, public relations and criminal justice to spread that awareness. She has not only published many articles and three nonfiction books, Maher has also served as a magistrate, a deputy clerk in the Federal Clerk’s Office in Buncombe County and has taught criminal justice at Asheville-Buncombe Technical Community College.

The Buncombe County native’s work has been published in Good Housekeeping, Lady’s Circle, Seventeen, Popular Handicrafts and many national and local newspapers. Her books include “Trooper Down: Life & Death on the Highway Patrol,” “Flight for Life,” and “Gifts from Shane,” a memoir she wrote after the death of her youngest child.

As a writer, Maher also does a lot of reading. She says it’s hard to be a good writer if you don’t read the work of other people.

When she’s not working, writing or reading, Maher makes occasional trips to Australia where she was born. Maher and her husband have two sons and five grandchildren that also keep them busy.

NCCA seeking nominations for awards

The North Carolina Correctional Association (NCCA) is soliciting nominations for two annual awards: the H.G. Gus Moeller Award and the Outstanding Journalism Award (OJA). The Moeller Award recognizes an NCCA member who provides outstanding service to the association and its membership, while the OJA honors the North Carolina news organizations that contribute most to increased public awareness and knowledge about correctional issues. NCCA awards two OJA awards, one for broadcast journalism and the other for print media.

All nominations must be submitted by Aug. 29, 2003 to Steve Goodrum, NCCA Awards Committee, P.O. Box 1808, Laurinburg, NC 28352. The awards will be presented during the closing brunch of the Annual Conference in November. For more information, contact Goodrum at (910) 369-2013.
