In late June, the Department of Corrections helped with sandbagging efforts due to extensive flooding in Waterville, MN. Seventy-five incarcerated individuals from the minimum-security unit at Minnesota Correctional Facility-Faribault and staff spent several days assisting with flood relief efforts. More than 30 staff helped make this relief effort possible, some working side-by-side with incarcerated individuals in providing much-needed assistance to the community. Thank you to everyone who took part in these flood relief efforts! Staff and the group of incarcerated individuals expressed gratitude for the opportunity to give back and to support those impacted by these devastating floods.
