Health & Wellness Expo

Keeping correctional employees healthy

Health Expo offers conference goers a healthy break B eing a correctional officer or employee is a stress-filled profession and oftentimes that leads to a less than healthy lifestyle. That’s why ACA has been focusing on staff wellness for the past few years, especially after the recent COVID-19 pandemic brought this issue directly to the forefront. At the Congress of Correction, participants could take a break from the proceedings to check out new information on healthy living from nutri tion to exercise at the Heath Care Expo room.
