To the Honorable, the Legislature:
As required by §
15.04 (1)(d) Wisconsin Statutes, the Department of Corrections (DOC) submits its 2009-2011 biennial report summarizing the performance and operations of the department for the biennium.
The Department's primary mission is the safety and security of the public through incarceration of inmates in correctional facilities and through the supervision of offenders in the community. In addition, we must provide a safe and secure environment for our staff in carrying out their duties and to provide offenders with opportunities to be successfully reintegrated into society when they are released.
In addition to this report, a fully developed report on the Becky Young funding for reentry projects was submitted earlier this year. That report can be reviewed online at
http://www.wi-doc.com/indexadult.htm.
Thank you for the opportunity to share this information about the Department of Corrections' progress in fulfilling its mission.
Sincerely,
Gary H. Hamblin
Secretary
Referred to committee on Criminal Justice and Corrections.
