It takes a lot of courage to step into a male-dominated field, making a difference in the lives of residents and helping the overall security of our great state. These are just a few of those stories. In honor of International Women's Day and National Women's History month, KDOC celebrates these special recognitions, as we highlight several women throughout our agency shining a light on the essential work they provide whether in facilities or through parole supervision. We look at why women got into this profession, the strengths they bring to the table, and why they are an integral asset for all units.
