Message From the Office of the Secretary of Corrections:

KDOC News — 2018-10-24T21:05:00Z

We have determined that changes in management will be beneficial to the agency and to the incumbents currently assigned as Wardens.

Effective immediately the following changes in facility management will be implemented:

Paul Snyder, currently Warden at El Dorado Correctional Facility, has been appointed as Warden of the Winfield Correctional Facility / Wichita Work Release Facility;
Sam Cline, currently Warden at the Lansing Correctional Facility, has been appointed as Warden of the El Dorado Correctional Facility
Ron Baker, currently Deputy Warden at the Lansing Correctional Facility has been appointed the Warden at Lansing.

All of the staff members have long histories in management of correctional facilities, and I am confident that these changes will result in a stronger correctional management team.

Please take a moment to congratulate the Wardens on their new appointments.

Secretary Joe Norwood

LCF's Joe Wilson Receives Quilt of Valor 09 19 24

David Thompson — 2024-09-19T22:00:00Z

More than 20 years ago, an Iraqi war veteran's mother had a dream that a quilt draped around her son helped soothe his battle nightmares. She helped create a non-profit foundation around that dream, called Quilts of Valor. The foundation has since awarded nearly 395-thousand quilts. The foundation's goal is to cover as many of our veterans who served in Iraq/Afghanistan as possible. On September 19, 2024, Lansing Correctional Facility's Joe Wilson, a Discharge Planner and an 11-year veteran in a Medevac unit, was honored by the foundation. The quilt was handmade by Judabeth Bural, a Mentoring 4 Success Volunteer, who also presented the quilt to Wilson. It took almost 50 hours to make the quilt.

LCF Resident Todd Deal MBA Graduation Ceremony 08 02 24

David Thompson — 2024-08-09T21:00:00Z

Lansing Correctional Facility Resident, Todd Deal, says there are three contributing factors that helped him earn his masters degree: first, his support team which includes his sister Amanda, several residents involved with Brothers in Blue Reentry, the head of BIBR, CJ Hughes; second is his pastor of record, Jeff Hord, who planted a church inside LCF, Vineyard Church - Lansing; and third, inspiration from his mother before she passed in 2011.

Our congratulations to Todd Deal for his hard work and determination to enhance his education and to be an encouragement for others.

And thank you to all of our staff, contractors, and volunteers who have helped along the way!
