Strategic Plan for Offender Programming

  • To adequately screen and evaluate inmates at the time of entry into NMCD and throughout their incarceration, to ensure each individual receives appropriate programs and services.


  • To provide a full range of work programs to provide opportunities for offenders to gain marketable job skills, training, economic self sufficiency, reduce idleness and lower costs.


  • To provide appropriate educational opportunities to eligible inmates to improve their education, vocational, cognitive, employability and pre-release knowledge and skills.


  • To provide programs and services that meet the unique needs of the female offender.


  • To participate with Corrections Industries programs, in connection with the SOAR-Success for Offenders After Release program, to provide meaningful employment opportunities that correlate with skills, attitudes and experience necessary to place released offenders in the job market.


  • To develop and implement a uniform computerized data management system for all educational programs in all adult prisons throughout New Mexico.
