Dear Friends:
On behalf of the American Correctional Association (ACA), welcome to the Middle Atlantic
States Correctional Associations (MASCA) Conference! We send you greetings and a hearty welcome
as you begin your days of training at MASCAs Annual Conference in Washington, D.C., June 11-14,
2014. The theme, "Integrating Corrections: Sharing the Resources, Responsibility and Power"
promises to address many relevant issues facing all of us today.
We believe that your participation in this conference will be productive and meaningful and that
you, as an attendee, will gain valuable experience through your participation, as you explore important
issues affecting the corrections arena. Hopefully, you will benefit from your attendance and will be able
to take back to your respective state the knowledge you gained through your participation.
ACA is proud to have MASCA as an affiliate of our organization and appreciates the long-
standing partnership that our organizations have enjoyed through the years. Our best wishes for a
successful conference, and we hope to see you at our 144
