North Idaho Correctional Institution has been working hard to combat the spread of viruses by manufacturing cloth masks for the entire NICI population.
Susan Stamper, from our education team, has been guiding this group of offenders on the production efforts of over 1000 masks.
This has turned into a great teaching moment by showing these men how to sew as well as the reward of being instrumental in our departments efforts to combat covid-19.
Warden Aaron Krieger, who is a University of Idaho alum, was presented with the 1000th mask that happened to be Idaho Vandal colors.
