U. S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos Visits Montgomery County Correctional Facility
In recognition of National Reentry Week, U.S. Secretary of Education Betsy DeVos visited the Montgomery County Correctional Facility (MCCF) in Boyds, Maryland, to learn about the facility's education programs and to also learn more about the nexus of education and workforce development as it relates to Reentry. While At the MCCF, Secretary DeVos met the County's Department of Correction and Rehabilitation Director Robert Green and his staff along with Montgomery College President Dr. DeRionne Pollard, and other representatives from Montgomery College; Montgomery County Public Schools; and WorkSource Montgomery, Inc.
Secretary DeVos took the time to engage with inmates taking classes and other opportunities to better prepare themselves for a return to society and reduce the chance of recidivism.
