Public Information & Tours

The Osceola County Corrections Department places a significant focus on volunteer services realizing volunteers are an essential element in affording inmates the chance to become productive members of the community. Volunteers assist in providing literacy and educational programs, life skills training, job skills training, parent training, medical issues and prevention training, arts and crafts programs, drug and alcohol rehabilitation programs, and other programs determined by OCCD to aid in the transition between confinement and society, and to reduce the incidence of recidivism.

The role of the volunteer within TDCJ is to provide guidance in specific activities and programs, promote personal growth and development, and help facilitate re-entry into the community. If you are interested in becoming an approved volunteer within OCCD please print the Volunteer Application, complete all information indicating your area of interest, and mail to: Melanie Biron at (407) 742-4423 or by e-mail mkee3@Osceola.org.
