We must acknowledge that staff wellness in Corrections can be one of the heaviest burdens of them all, yet one of the most difficult challenges to overcome. We also must recognize that heavy burdens only get lighter as we increase the number of hands that are lifting them as a team. This webinar is focused on the often-enormous task of improving staff wellness in Corrections. Learn how to break the barriers of stigma and lack of resources, by using the strength of the many to do the heavy lifting.

The American Jail Association (AJA) is a national, nonprofit organization that supports the professionals who operate our Nation’s jails. It is the only national association that focuses exclusively on issues specific to the operations of local correctional facilities. The driving force behind the phenomenal growth of AJA is its members. AJA has taken a leadership role in developing the type of programs that promote the professional growth of the dedicated men and women who operate our Nation’s jails. Jail staff have the responsibility for the management of people who have been charged with violating our laws and often mock the ideals on which AJA was founded. Jail personnel find themselves sorely tested each day in the jail environment when they receive scorn and derision for their loyalty and perseverance under extremely trying circumstances. AJA takes this opportunity to salute the jail staff of the Nation who, by their dedication to the difficult task of local corrections, have made a vital, positive difference to the welfare of the communities they serve.
