When Mary McNamee and Kieth Simmons inherited the library of a longtime friend, they chose to donate the books to NCCW in their friend’s honor. Among the collection are many science fiction, fantasy and science books.

“We hope they allow many readers to give their imaginations flight through their fantastic stories,” they said.

5-Key Model for Reentry and Well-Being Development

February 15, 2024

Why not focus on our strengths?

Driven by this question, we've launched the 5-Key Model for Reentry and Well-Being Development.

At multiple facilities, NDCS has begun training select team members and incarcerated individuals to become co-facilitators in this model. The model will touch every aspect of the rehabilitative process from intake to release to the community, including unit staff using this model in case management.

It has been incredibly inspiring to see the collaboration happenings in these trainings and the enthusiasm each person brings to this new and transformative model. #TransformNebraska...Read more

New Field Training Officers

February 13, 2024

It’s not a pre-service graduation; this is our incredible team of new field training officers (FTOs) who recently completed training.

FTOs are a special role within NDCS and an essential link in preparing new teammates to be capable and confident in their positions. After graduating from pre-service training at the Staff Training Academy, new teammates are paired with FTOs at each facility, who walk alongside them as they learn the facility and its posts.

We’re thrilled to have this team eager to step into the lives of our people and create a smooth transition to NDCS. #PeopleRead more
