Jetfes of the State Correctional In- stitution at Dallas announced recently that the institution has made application to the State Department of Education through the Luzerne Inter- mediate Unit for federal funds in the amount of 202,661.41. These funds will be used to implement vocational training programs for the resident population. air conditioning and refrig- installation, barbering, auto body, surveying drafting, office practice, and machine shop. In addition, supportive ser- vices in the areas of counseling and guidance will also be provided. If the program is approved by the Intermediate Unit Board it will be forwarded to the Bureau of Higher Education, Depart- ment of Education in Harris- burg. The Bureau of Higher Educa- tion under the direction of Commissioner Jerome M. Ziegler has recently been given the responsibility by Secretary of Education, John Pittinger for administering, developing, and coordinating educational programming for residents in the six state adult correctional institutions. Paul Crisler, director of education and Steve Polte, Learning Center coordinator at S.C.LLD. were responsible for developing the program package. Last year the Dallas Institu- tion received $58,000.00 for similar training for 114 resi- dents. Through a cooperative effort and with approval of the West Side Vocational Technical School Board, 16 of these residents were bussed, to the school Saturdays in order to attend a welding course under the instruction of John Moran, West Side staff member. The increased request in funding is an attempt by the Dallas institution to make an residents being released from the institutions to the com- The institution program attempts can best be summari- zed by a recent statement of Dr. George Beto, former president of the American Correctional Association and director of the Texas Department of Correc- tions: “We need to describe for the public and for governmental officials the character of our clients. With 85 percent school dropouts, 65 percent from broken homes, 18 percent functioning as illiterates, - 40 percent under age of 25 with no sustained record of prior em- ployment nor marketable skill, we begin with a ‘caseload of 100 percent failures.’ The men who come to us have been exposed to the influences of the home, the school, the church, and local law enforce- ment agencies, and the influ- ence apparently has been nega- tive. Prison, as a rehabilitative agency, is a last resort. We dare not fail.” If further information is desired contact Paul Crisler, Director of Education at S.C.1.D. 675-1101.
