Created in 1984 by President Ronald Reagan, corrections officers deal with institutional corrections (jails and prisons) and community corrections (community-based programs or sentencing options). Corrections officers are dedicated to maintaining a safe work environment to ensure the public safety in what is often a hostile environment and are unsung heroes in the field of law enforcement and public safety.
