Department of Correction launches social media pages

Department of Correction | Date Posted: Friday, November 21, 2014



Dover – Commissioner Robert Coupe today announced the launch of the official Department of Correction Twitter and Facebook pages. These resources have been developed to enhance communication with Delawareans by providing the public with real-time news and information, including time-sensitive notices about offenders and Department facilities, and updates on expanding resources offered to victims, offenders’ families, and others. The sites will also be regularly updated with postings and photos that reflect the wide range of community outreach efforts by Department of Correction staff and community service work performed by offenders.

“Our Twitter and Facebook pages are important resources that we have established to share news and information with all Delawareans,” Commissioner Coupe said. “These social media sites allow the public to develop a more comprehensive understanding of the many ways we meet our mission to guard public safety and reduce recidivism. They also provide us with another outlet to share offenders’ stories of progress and their commitment to live productive and law-abiding lives.”

Coupe urged Delawareans to stay informed by “friending” the Department on Facebook and “liking” the Department on Twitter. Members of the public can visit the Department of Correction’s social media sites by visiting Twitter.com/DECorrection or Facebook.com/DECorrection.
