How does TDCJ decide where inmates go? 📍 State classification evaluates each inmate, determines the right facility, and plans transportation. Today, the agency is larger than ever, and its approach is evolving to meet changing needs. Regionalization will help keep inmates closer to family, reduce transfers, and save time, money, and stress for everyone involved. 🤝 #TDCJ #Corrections #Rehabilitation | Texas Department of Criminal Justice
