• Today is Take a Child to Work Day, designed to demonstrate the value of education, help young people envision their futures and allow them to start taking steps toward their goals. Although not every job is conducive to bringing a child to work, all of us can help kids learn about potential career paths and prepare for success in the workplace and in life. As the field of corrections continues to face recruitment challenges, connecting with the next generation is more important than ever. CCSO encourages our members to help to shape the future of our profession through education, community outreach and positive role modeling, today and every day.

• The CIW community was recently hit hard by the tragic loss of Alila Dakaj, a 25-year correctional officer who passed away from cancer on April 2 at age 47. With CCSO’s support, CIW chapter held a fundraiser for Officer Dakaj’s family and also provided these stuffed bears fitted with CCSO vests as a token of comfort and remembrance to her four children. The bears included casings from the gun salute at Officer Dakaj’s funeral services, which were conducted by the CIW Honor Guard. We send our deepest condolences to Officer Dakaj’s family and friends, and all CIW staff and supervisors.
