BACKGROUND. The Ohio Department of Rehabilitation & Corrections (ODRC), as established under House Bill 494,

with responsibilities defined in Ohio Revised Code 5120 oversees the supervision of over 44,900 offenders in Ohio at 28

state prisons, which includes 3 prisons operating as private prisons, contracted to the agency. The institutions vary in level

of security and include corrections reception centers, correctional camps, and pre-release centers. The mission of ODRC

is to reduce recidivism among those we touch. The values of the agency are aligned to support the mission of the agency.

The values of the agency are as follows: (1) Take care of our staff; they will transform our incarcerated population (2) One

team-one purpose (3) Civility towards all and

(4) Hope is job one.

Final responsibility for operation of the Department rests with the Governor who appoints the Director. The Department's

Director serves at the pleasure of the Governor. The Director has full power and authority in the supervision and control of

the Department's affairs and is its chief administrative officer.

Ohio Penal Industries (OPI) is a division of the Ohio Department of Rehabilitation and Correction. The OPI Table Shop,

operating out of the Chillicothe Correctional Institution (CCI), employs incarcerated adults to produce all laminated top

tables for the facilities of the Department of Rehabilitation and Corrections (DRC), other State of Ohio government

agencies, and other local government entities.
