Harrisburg, PA – The Department of Corrections recently hosted a delegation of prison officials from Norway to provide an opportunity to tour Pennsylvania prisons and exchange ideas on prison reform.

During the four-day tour the group visited four state correctional institutions, representing different security levels and focused programming: Graterford (maximum security), Camp Hill (diagnostic center), Chester (drug treatment) and Muncy (female facility). The group also toured SCI Phoenix, the state-of-the-art facility that will replace Graterford.

The highlight of the week was a community event at SCI Chester where Warden Are Høidal of Halden Prison in Norway, and Department of Corrections Secretary John Wetzel shared their ideas on modern corrections and discussed the practical and philosophical goals of prisons before an audience of regional corrections staff and educators from Drexel University, which sponsored the trip.
