To the Honorable Governor of Texas and Members of the
Texas Legislature
Austin, Texas'4ll
LI am pleased to present the Annual Review for Fiscal Year 2019 for
the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ).
The mission of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice is to pro-
vide public safety, promote positive change in offender behavior,
reintegrate offenders into society and assist victims of crime. To suc-
cessfully accomplish this vital mission, the state relies upon 35,000
dedicated men and women who serve as employees of the TDCJ.
Theirs is a very demanding profession performed in a challenging and
sometimes hazardous work environment. To meet their responsibili-
ties requires hard work, long hours, sound judgement and a calm and
professional demeanor when confronted with stressful situations. It
is not a job for everyone, but it is a job that makes everyone safer,
including the public, crime victims and the offender population.Under the exceptional leadership of Executive Director Bryan Collier,
these dedicated and proud professionals have once again met every challenge. The Fiscal Year 2019
Annual Review highlights their accomplishments while also describing the agency's organizational
structure and the functions of each division and department. Please do not hesitate to contact Executive
Director Collier or myself if you would like additional information.
I thank you for your public service, and know that you join me and my fellow board members in
expressing appreciation to the hard-working employees of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice
for their service to the great state of Texas. I am honored to be associated with these outstanding men
and women and this successful organization.
Sincerely,
Patrick O'Daniel
Chairman, Texas Board of Criminal JusticeTexas Department of Criminal Justice
