#MTCorrections Probation and Parole Officer Mckenzie Lyons received the Montana Federation of Public Employees (MFPE) Medal of Valor for her life-saving actions in September when an individual in the Helena P&P office stopped breathing. She performed chest compressions and other maneuvers, successfully reviving the person. The Medal of Valor honors those who go above and beyond to save lives. Congratulations on this well-deserved recognition!

Every Wednesday, #MTCorrections seeks the assistance of the community to locate offenders who have absconded from supervision. They are generally violent or sexual offenders who should be considered dangerous. If you have any information about their whereabouts, contact your local law enforcement office or call 444-0910. #wantedwednesday

In October, #MTCorrections employees across Montana donned pink t-shirts during Breast Cancer Awareness Month to raise funds for Pack the Place in Pink. The nonprofit organization uses proceeds from the sale of the shirts and other fundraising efforts to assist Montanans who are fighting breast cancer.

#MTCorrections employees got into the spirit and wore some spooktacular costumes this #Halloween. Demonstrating that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, two members of our team dressed up like our fearless leader, Director Gootkin. The director had his own brush with fame and posed for a pic with Elvis! DOC staff who were handing out candy at the Capitol took the opportunity to snap a photo with Governor Gianforte and his wife. What a Spooktacular Halloween it was!
