When people in the system become fully engaged in their rehabilitation, we all benefit.
One size does not fit all for individuals under the Department of Corrections' (DOC) care, and we’re changing the way we think about corrections care.
The Minnesota Department of Corrections (DOC) is implementing the Minnesota Rehabilitation and Reinvestment Act (MRRA), a transformative shift in how Minnesota approaches incarceration, programming, release readiness, and reintegration. MRRA requires individualized programming, validated risk assessments, new pathways to earned incentive release, and meaningful integration of victim input. It fundamentally reshapes DOC systems, requiring modernization of technology, policies, training, and operations.
To get the best correctional outcomes – safer prisons for individuals and staff, safer communities for Minnesota families, and successful reentry of formerly incarcerated people into their communities – we must tailor our approach to each individual's specific needs and risk.
