Correctional Officers are being exposed to dangerous chemicals through synthetic drugs, cleaning agents, and poor facility ventilation. These exposures cause real, lasting health effects — from respiratory issues to neurological damage. NYSDOCS.org advocates for testing, protective equipment, medical monitoring, and transparency to ensure no officer’s health is sacrificed for their duty.
A culture of silence and retaliation has no place in public service. When leadership fails to act on safety concerns or punishes those who speak up, trust breaks down. We call for independent oversight, transparent investigations, and leadership held to the same standards of integrity expected of every officer on the line.
Behind every uniform is a person who carries the weight of trauma. Correctional Officers face violence, moral injury, and constant stress — burdens that extend into their homes and families. NYSDOCS.org pushes for confidential counseling, peer support programs, and recognition that mental health is a matter of safety, not weakness.
True change begins in policy. Officers deserve laws that protect them — not punish them for standing up for safety or fairness. NYSDOCS.org works to advance legislation that strengthens whistleblower protections, Officer Safety, ADA rights, and restores respect for the profession through fair labor standards and representation.
Understaffing puts everyone at risk — officers, inmates, and the public. When facilities run below safe levels, response times slow, fatigue grows, and morale collapses. We demand proper staffing ratios, safer facility designs, and data-driven staffing policies that prioritize human safety over budget cuts.

2024 through current (Ongoing): We've helped Correctional Officers understand PESH's role within facilities. We've aided thousands of Officers in filing PESH Complaints and continue to do so.
By filing PESH complaints, an investigation into safety failures in New York State facilities becomes public record.

May - June 2025
We've helped hundreds of terminated Correctional Officers preserve their right to sue New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision.
This means 100's of certified mail documents were delivered to NYS Attorney General Offices across the state.

May 2025 - July 2025
We advised terminated Officers to file EEOC complaints (when warranted) regarding the stipulation of settlement. As part of the EEOC investigation, NYSDOCCS was forced to clarify current and terminated Officers do not waive their rights by signing the stipulation of settlement.

We work tirelessly to promote Correctional Officer safety by engaging Assembly men and women and NYS Senators. We assist them by providing statistics, information on policy failures and wins, as well as needed reforms in regards to the Halt Act.
Many discussion points discussed on the Senate floor during the 2025 legislative session were provided by current and former Officers.

We have been fortunate to be put in touch with Officers whom have been exposed to unknown substances as well as their families.
Although they may still bearing the brunt of the after affects, we assist individuals to ensure they know they matter. What happened to them matters. We answer the questions they may have, advise them of what their rights are, what to file internally with NYSDOCCS, as well be there to assist in their recovery, if needed.
Our network is growing. If you know anyone who may need assistance, please reach out.

We act as a shield for those experiencing retaliation, unfair labor practices, or NYSDOCCS corruption within facilities.
By providing a layer of trusted anonymity, we are able to supply legal representatives 100's of documents and recordings, work within our network to target and eliminate corruption at all levels, as well as call out accountability for Officer safety.
We take integrity seriously.
When we say "in the right hands", we mean it.
"Shake and bake!"
