One of the Network units still remains in operation, since 1981, at the maximum-security Clinton Correctional Facility, in Clinton, NY.
During this period, Thomas A. Coughlin, then Commissioner of NY DOCS, visited a Network unit at Fishkill Correctional Facility in Fishkill, NY. Commissioner Coughlin was impressed by the positive environment and results he saw at Fishkill. While touring the Network unit in Fishkill, he asked, “Clark, why can’t they (all facilities) all be this way?”
