The Florida Department of Corrections Strategic Plan (1993-1997) represents a major change in the department's planning process by consolidating the Agency Functional Plan (AFP) and the Comprehensive Correctional Master Plan (CMP).
Abstract
The six issues are posed as questions: How can the department better ensure the safety of the public? How can the department promote its public safety leadership role in developing and maintaining a partnership with local communities and public safety agencies? How can the department create or enhance programs and services to diminish the growth of the offender population? How can the department improve communication with the public and educate them concerning its mission and accomplishments? How can the department obtain the financial resources and staffing patterns to better manage a quality correctional system at optimal efficiency? And how can the department increase productivity through improvements to human resources, management techniques, and information technology? This plan discusses each issue in terms of the issue goal and potential problems and opportunities associated with it. 6 appendixes
