About New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision (DOCCS)
The New York State Department of Corrections and Community Supervision, known as DOCCS, is a New York State government agency. It runs the state prison system and oversees people released on parole, and its headquarters is in Albany. Its published mission is to improve public safety by delivering treatment services in secure facilities and by providing supportive services to people under community supervision.
The department's Office of Counsel supplies legal support to the agency itself. Its Community Supervision unit monitors compliance with release conditions and, through the Executive Clemency Bureau, handles pardon requests and certificate applications. The Board of Parole, which decides parole release and revocation, operates within the department as an independent decision-making body. The agency lists facilities across the state, along with regional community supervision offices. Published facility counts differ between sources, ranging from 41 to 44.
