California State Prison (CSP) Corcoran hosted a staff appreciation day and Health and Wellness fair on May 6 to thank staff for their hard work and dedication.

The event was sponsored by:

  • California Correctional Peace Officers Association (CCPOA)
  • California Correctional Supervisors Organization (CCSO)
  • Service Employees International Union (SEIU)
  • Chicano Correctional Workers Association (CCWA)
  • Employee Activity Committee (EAC)

First watch staff were provided breakfast burritos, water, and a soda as they arrived to start their shift.

For second and third watch staff, each facility was provided hamburgers, hotdogs and a beverage. This allowed each facility to barbecue for the people they work with each day.

Staff also enjoyed 25 vendors at the health and wellness fair. This was a way to promote awareness of available services and resources, giving staff ways to better care for themselves and family.
