Welcome to the Leadership eNews,

CorrectionsOne, in partnership with the Correctional Management Institute of Texas, is happy to bring you the first edition of our new, once-monthly Leadership eNews, which tackles the most critical issues in correctional leadership head-on.

You are receiving this inaugural issue because, as a correctional professional, we believe this content will be helpful to you and your career. However, if you do not wish to receive future issues of the Leadership eNews, simply unsubscribe here by entering your email address and selecting "No".

If you're joining CorrectionsOne from CMIT, we recommend you also sign up for the C1 weekly eNewsletter, which gives a snapshot of important corrections news and columns each week.
