Arizonans For Transparency and Accountability in Corrections
Arizonans for Transparency and Accountability in Corrections (ATAC) is a non-partisan, non-profit organization working to establish and implement independent, external oversight of the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation, and Reentry (ADCRR).
The ATAC model creates the Office of Independent Correctional Ombudsman (ICO) to monitor, investigate, and create public reports on the ADCRR and a Citizen-Led Legislative Correctional Oversight Committee to review the reports created by the ICO for legislative oversight and action.
The ATAC model creates effective and responsive oversight, ensures accurate reporting, and provides a framework to advise lawmakers and policymakers on necessary operational improvements in the Arizona Department of Corrections, Rehabilitation, and Reentry.
