?? The Federal Bureau of Prisons celebrates Women's History Month by highlighting some famous "firsts." In 1942, Nina Kinsella shattered barriers by overseeing the Jail Inspection Service and compiling the FBOP’s first “Manual of Policy and Procedures.” ?? But her groundbreaking work didn’t stop there—she became the first Executive Assistant to Directors Bates and Bennett. Her influence didn’t go unnoticed—in 1961, Kinsella was honored with the prestigious “Federal Women’s Award,” recognizing her outstanding achievements and leadership in federal service. Nina Kinsella wasn’t just part of history—she made history, shaping FBOP policy, procedures, and even its culture. ?? #WomensHistoryMonth #JusticeReform #Trailblazer
