Connie Kanehailua
Counselor at Airway Heights Corrections Center

“I have been working at the prison system for over 30 years. I have seen how things have changed over the years. Having a union brings people together. When you work in a prison system, everybody needs to be on one page. They need to be trained. They need to be fair, firm and consistent when dealing with prisoners. Not only counselors, but custody staff too, everyone. We have to be a team.”
