Since 1980, the Illinois Correctional Association has been dedicated to facilitating professional development, expanding public awareness, and implementing agency standards in Illinois prisons and jails, community corrections, probation, and parole. The ICA recognizes the importance of a wide range of professionals, institutions, and organizations related to corrections, and we welcome members from all fields. Because understanding corrections begins with understanding professional standards, our emphasis is on professional development and training, providing activities and events for information sharing, networking, and problem-solving, and providing programs for integrating students into the profession and expanding public awareness of corrections and related agencies as integrated elements of the criminal justice process.
