Water Walkers is an inmate-led support group at NCCW that was created by inmates and is facilitated by Sergeant Davis and Warden Davidson.  The group seeks to help inmates with a challenging past to see the possibility of new, positive beginnings.   Water Walkers is a spiritual group that is welcoming to all who wish to participate.

The group recently held an all-day retreat that allowed the thirty women who participated to give back to the NCCW community by connecting with one another spiritually and intellectually.  Jan and Randy Bretz, TedX Lincoln keynote speakers, were honored guests.

“For two years, I have seen these inmates help the culture shift, and the mindset of staff and inmates change,” said Sgt. Davis.  He added that these changes are subtle, but are creating a ripple effect throughout NCCW. “I am so grateful for the Director, Warden, Jan and Randy Bretz for attending this event.”
