Intern
- The mission was expanded in 2012 to include providing effective community supervision of adult offenders to ensure public safety based upon the transfer of probation and parole supervision and community correction grant program functions from the Board of Parole (BOP) to the TDOC. This transition is critical to the seamless supervision of felons in Tennessee, whether they are on probation, incarcerated in prison, on parole, or under the supervision of one of the community corrections agencies.
- The department manages and operates 10 adult prisons, contracts with a private prison management company for the operation of one prison, and contracts with several counties for the operation of three other prisons, collectively housing some 21,000 offenders.
- The TDOC also supervises some 75,000 offenders on probation, parole or community corrections.
- The community supervision unit consists of 13 districts and 46 probation/parole offices.
- The Tennessee Department of Corrections Communications Office manages all communications about the Agency to educate and inform the public, media, and employees, in a timely and accurate manner through the use of media relations, electronic communications and publications.
