(WXMI) â This week the governor issued a proclamation declaring the first week of May Correctional Officer Week in Michigan. The job is difficult and often thankless, but also rewarding.
âI get to work with great individuals,â said Sgt. Ryan Dock, a Kent County correctional officer. âWe re a huge team inside of there; we re big family inside of there when stuff goes crazy. And we all come together to solve the problem and work together.â
Sergeant Dock has been with the department for 13 years after graduating with a criminal justice degree from Grand Valley State University. He says beyond the badges and uniforms usually associated with corrections, thereâs a large range of roles played by the Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC) staff.
