Our staff teamed up with @TNTDOC1 for their Crisis Intervention Team (CIT) training! This training empowers staff to not only recognize symptoms of a mental health crisis, but also gives staff additional tools to de-escalate a potential critical situation. #MentalHealthMatters

Second Chances Work! Taking a chance on hiring a justice-involved individual could be the answer to your hiring issues. They are trained and ready to work. The Tennessee Office of Reentry can walk you through the process with its Employer Guide. Check out TN.gov/reentryTN.

Statistically, men already struggle to open up emotionally. In prison, it can be even more difficult considering the circumstances. #Volunteers like Men of Valor's Rudy Kalis can help unlock some of those emotions and provide hope to @TNTDOC1 inmates.

Memphis has seen the face of evil. Innocent lives have been taken & violent criminals will be held accountable.
This is why Proven Crime Prevention is our top priority. Law enforcement has our full support, & we've stiffened penalties & supervision for violent offenders.
