SCID is now
accredited
The National Commission on
Accreditation for Corrections (CAC)
recently presented a certificate of
accreditation to administrators at
the State Correctional Institution at
Dallas. The State Correctional Insti-
tution at Huntingdon and the State
Regional Correctional Facility at
Mercer were also accredited during
a brief luncheon ceremony held at
the state Bureau of Correction’s
Central Office.
To be accredited, the candidate
facility must meet 100 percent of the
43 mandatory national standards
and at least 90 percent of the
remaining 426 non-mandatory ones.
It takes a year to a year and a half
to complete the process, as staff
verify compliance with the CAC’s
standards, first through internal self
assessment, then through a strin-
gent audit by visiting experts and
finally by vote of the commission
itself. 3
During the ceremony, John R.
Stepanik, acting deputy superin-
tendent for operations at the State
Correctional Institution at Dallas,
accepted the three-year accredita-
tion certificate for that facility.
Thomas J. Figmik, administrative
assistant at the State Correctional
Institution at Dallas, was also
acknowledged as the accreditation
coordinator at the facility.

year, the band brought a total of 51
trophies home to Lake-Lehman.
Director Miliauskas has named this
year’s band the ‘winningest’ band
ever to come from Lake-Lehman.
