Mission Statement
The mission of the North Carolina Jail Administrators' Association is to encourage and facilitate professionalism through effective and timely training and the exchange of information between jail professionals. Our goal is to foster respect, friendship, and good will among all jail professionals and to promote a positive image to the community and citizens we serve.
The North Carolina Jail Administrators' Association will not endorse or lobby for or against any legislation or political position. It will not endorse candidates, political parties or ideologies, nor will it engage in any other political activities.
I hope everyone had a great summer and had an opportunity to get away on a family vacation. If your summer was much like mine, I had the opportunity to spend some time at the pool and beach and even managed to spend a family vacation at Disney World. I hope that everyone was able to make a commitment to spend time to strengthen their family relationships which is very important. This summer has been great, but it will soon be over as we prepare to get our children back in school and we begin to refocus and plan for the upcoming months ahead.
Our focus as the Board of Directors is on the upcoming 2008 Annual Training Conference in High Point at the Radisson Hotel on October 1st – 3rd. The Training Committee has completed the breakout training sessions, and we are all looking forward to a great conference with excellent training and an opportunity to network with vendors, jail administrators and other professionals from across the State.
