Correctional Industrial Facility
Donates to Local Healthcare Heroes

Pendleton, Ind. - The Correctional Industrial Facility (CIF) in Pendleton continues to slow the spread of COVID-19 with a donation of supplies to the community.

Correctional Industrial Facility recently donated 300 face mask extenders to local healthcare heroes. These extenders are designed to increase the comfort of the mask by taking pressure off of your ears.

The face mask extenders aren't the only way offenders are demonstrating we are truly 'in this together'. As widely reported, face masks have been in short supply for health professionals as well as for the public. This is why the IDOC began and continues to manufacture face masks in prison facilities.

As of April 17, 2020 face masks have been supplied to each IDOC prison facility.  All 27,000 offenders and 6,000 staff have received a masks. However, production has not slowed down and Correctional Industrial Facility offenders remain hard at work manufacturing over 6000 face masks to use in the facility and donate to the community.

Warden Wendy Knight commented, “We are all in this together, we are proud to still be able to reach out and help the community in whatever small part we can during this pandemic.”
