how are we different?
People First
- SPC believes in a culture of safety and security, openness and mutual respect between leadership, staff and residents that will foster trust and meaningful rehabilitation.
- We will engage correctional residents by providing a wide variety of onsite learning, cultural, and self-improvement opportunities, accessible mental health and wellness programing and emotional intelligence counseling, 1:1 drug/alcohol rehabilitation, and industry recognized employment credentialing opportunities. We will provide consistent staff training that is equally focused on safety and security, and the art of inspiring self-improvement in others.
- Staff will be paid a fair and livable wage which will allow us to hire and retain the most qualified correctional professionals.
- SPC will develop a College of Corrections for staff, and share with other correctional systems, focused on evidence-based offender change initiatives, professional development, and real-time recidivism tracking and analysis.
Social Impact
- Our sole mission is to help residents do better through consistent and meaningful programming, therapy, access to healthcare and job training before they return as citizens.
- SPC plans for a resident's re-entry on day one of incarceration.
- Social impact and public safety is how we measure success, not by bed-count.
- Society at large derives the real profits from a system that invests in their most important asset - their people.
Nonprofit Transparency
- Net revenues are reinvested in resident programming and staff development - no shareholders or red tape.
- Operating as a 501(c)3 means performance is public record.
- SPC will be transparent with successes and challenges by posting a dashboard on our website that tracks our progress.
Innovation
- SPC will utilize long-term offenders from various correctional systems as part of a Think Tank for social change so they may assist our country's leaders with solutions for social justice reform and lowered recidivism across the board.
- We will hire returned citizens who specialize in rehabilitation and re-entry services. If anyone knows what is needed, it's these individuals.
- SPC will include family-friendly programing with a focus on parent-child relationships, which helps to promote positive family connections early on. Supportive family relationships during incarceration motivates residents to do better and be better when they are released.
- We will assist correctional residents with I.D. and documentation services and connect them to social services and re-entry support prior to release.
