Prisons Hiring in Colorado
DENVER -- Despite implementing a hiring freeze last fall, Colorado is still hanging a help wanted sign.
The state is looking to hire about 140 people for jobs ranging from nurses and police dispatchers to prison librarians and vocational instructors, even though Gov. Bill Ritter has already ordered departments to cut their budgets by 10 percent.

I heard a rumor that in one of the CCA facilities in CO, that if an inmate is involved in vocational study, whether as a teacher or a student, they are all required to live in one room together
Isnt the Governor supposed to be in charge of all state agencys such as the depatment of corrections?? Doesnt the state legislator's pass the laws that the DOC is supposed to follow??
Now we all know there are some terrible problems within the CDOC. Shouldnt the public demand that those in charge either correct the problems they have created or reign there positions!! djw
If the CDOC did not treat there staff like they treat the prisoners, maybe staff would stick around longer. Not only that if they would stop hiding things under the rug when senior staff do something wrong. Newer staff would probably stick around longer and then CDOC would not have to hire new personnel so often.
There are definitely some terrible problems within the CDOC!!
