We are thrilled to welcome the National Trade Union of Prison Policemen (SNPP) to the ICPA community! As Romania's largest trade union in the Prison Police since 2004, SNPP has been a powerful advocate for prison staff rights, working conditions, and professional development across all sectors—from security and regime to social reintegration, medical services, and administration. SNPP's dedication to promoting ethical practices, reducing staff stress, and championing policy development makes them an invaluable addition to our global network. Their commitment to seeing trade unions as partners in creating solutions resonates perfectly with our mission. Together, we're working together for better corrections! We look forward to a strong partnership built on shared learning, best practices, and our collective goal of enhancing public safety through effective correctional practices. Welcome aboard, SNPP! Here's to collaboration, growth, and making a difference in corrections worldwide! (fb)
