Correction's Committee

04.10.2010

 

ABOUT US:

To better serve the 10,000 Correction Officers who are members of the New Jersey State Policemen’s Benevolent Association, on January 15, 1991 the Correction Officers’ Committee (COC) was formed. The committee is made up of delegates from County and State Correctional Facilities.

The goal of the Correction Officers’ Committee is to improve the status of the Correctional Officer profession, ensure that Correction Officers have a strong clear voice over reforming the criminal justice systems as it impacts corrections, and most importantly preserve the safety of the Correction Officer. The committee plans on achieving these goals through the introduction and support of legislation and regulatory proposals favorable to Correction Officers at the State and County levels.

Committee Chairman Ed Weimmer, Ocean Co. Dept. of Corrections
