Potential Portable A/C Units in Housing Areas

Earlier this week we confirmed with Secretary Dixon that they are considering a potential pilot at Lowell for portable Air Conditioning units that can circulate cool air into the housing units. If it works out at Lowell, there is the potential for expansion into other prisons.

A HUGE thank you to directly impacted mom, Connie Edson, for the time and dedication searching for a possible solution to the hot prison conditions and to Rep. Hinson for pushing this important topic with FDC!

While this is still formative, there will be a demonstration by the vendor in the coming week and we hope to hear more positive news in the future.
