Howard County MD Corrections

We are so grateful for Thomas Lane who launched a coat drive for our population! The coat drive was called “Coat off Your Back” and provided those being released into the community with a warm coat. This was a collaboration between his organization “Released Project”, and a church he does ministry with “City of Hope Missionary Baptist Church”. Thank you to all of those who participated to keep our mission moving forward! 🧥🧤🧣

Of course the Howard County Department of Corrections was present for the Polar Bear Plunge! As a department we raised over $2,500 towards the Special Olympics! The campaign which included the Maryland State Police, Fire, Corrections and Sheriff’s Office, raised a whopping $341,667! We want to thank all of our employees who fundraised, donated, took the plunge, or showed your support! See you next year! ❄️

In 2026 one of our major goals is to do more community outreach. We started with providing adult coloring books to a nearby senior center. Hoping to bring a little cheer during the winter to our neighbors all around Howard County

Throwback Thursday to when we had our 4th Annual Reentry & Recovery Conference! A special thank you to all of our speakers who came to share their story and community resources!

Come see what all the buzz is about! Excited to release our Beekeeping video by Howard County Government Television!
