Across California, CDCR and California Correctional Health Care Services staff took part in Thanksgiving events at the institution and in the community.
As more institutions submit their Thanksgiving events, this round-up will be updated.
CIM staff hold annual Thanksgiving Turkey Trot
The California Institution for Men (CIM) Crisis Response Team No. 16 staff held their ninth annual Thanksgiving Turkey Trot. Each year, Team 16 chooses a different challenging trail to “trot” all while carrying a boulder rock as a symbol to the team’s unity.
The trot honors the team program, all law enforcement agencies, and military branches. This year’s Turkey Trot was held Nov. 15.
