This week, SEANC First Vice President Emily Jones joined the team during Board of Governors week to discuss the growing staffing crisis across prisons and probation & parole, the use of lapse salaries, and the toll underfunding takes on morale and public safety.
Emily shares frontline experiences — from inmate confrontations to challenges in community supervision — while the team also touches on mental health, homelessness, law enforcement benefits, and broader public concerns raised by recent policy debates.
