The South Carolina Correctional Association

The South Carolina Correctional Association (SCCA) is a multidisciplinary organization consisting of correctional professionals, individual agencies and organizations involved in all aspects of criminal justice activities. The SCCA was formed in February of 1979, after the Board of Governors of the American Correctional Association instituted a chapter pilot program. This program allowed for dual membership in State Chapters as well as the national organization. The SCCA provides professional development to its members through several workshops and seminars conducted throughout the year and also conducts an annual conference. At these sessions, relevant issues of concern or interest to criminal justice professionals and other interested persons are explored. Members receive quarterly newsletters that provide pertinent information about current events. Association members also participate in a variety of community, social and athletic events that foster open communication and a better understanding by citizens of the issues and challenges being faced by professionals in this field.
