🎉 🎊 Victim Impact Celebration 🎉 🎊

Hamilton Unit successfully hosted our Victim Impact Celebration on June 26, 2026. A total of 120 residents completed the 10‑week Department of Justice Victim Impact Listen and Learn Course, which focuses on understanding victims, the ripple effect of crime, the reality that there is no such thing as a victimless offense, and the importance of personal accountability facilitated by Recovery Peer Support Specialist S. Flynn.

This achievement reflects the hard work and commitment of our residents, as well as the dedication of the staff who continue to support and guide them through the program.

We extend our sincere appreciation to Warden Po***ck, Warden Snelson, Director Canul, Ms. Handcock, Ms. Collier, Ms. Duncan and Mr. McFetridge for their leadership, involvement, and continued support of this impactful initiative.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to making this celebration meaningful and successful.
