Franklin County Sheriff Chris Donelan will be heading to Washington, D.C., in December to lead a panel discussion on reentry of offenders back into the community. The three-day conference, organized by the Council of State Governments, will touch on many topics in corrections, including behavioral health, collaborations, use of data and research and Sheriff Donelan’s panel on the challenges of reentry in rural communities. “I am very honored to be leading this discussion,” Donelan said in announcing the news. “I’ve been invited to speak to a room full of government leaders and criminal justice professionals from around the country because Franklin County is doing it right. That says a lot about our community and all the employees at the Franklin County Sheriff’s Office.” The conference is sponsored by the Department of Justice Bureau of Justice Assistance, which supports states, local communities, and tribal jurisdictions in their efforts to develop and implement effective programs for offenders that protect public safety, hold offenders accountable, and provide services that address the needs of offenders and their families. Also sponsoring the event is the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, which sponsors research, program, and training initiatives; develops priorities and goals and sets policies to guide federal juvenile justice issues; disseminates information about juvenile justice issues; and awards funds to states to support local programming.
