NCDAC Secretary's Education Message

As correction professionals, we play a crucial role in transforming the lives of incarcerated individuals through education and technology. By embracing innovative tools and platforms, we can deliver high-quality instruction that is engaging, accessible, and tailored to the unique needs of North Carolina offenders. Through video conferencing, online modules, and interactive learning materials, we can bring the outside world into the prison environment, exposing offenders to a wealth of knowledge and opportunities for personal growth. Through dedicated work, we can impart academic knowledge but also serve as mentors who cultivate critical thinking skills, foster self-esteem, and guide incarcerated individuals toward a path of rehabilitation and successful reintegration.
