The Department of Corrections will expand broadband capacity for Sterling and Limon Correctional Facilities as the State looks to expand mental and behavioral health treatment for offenders in the correctional system. The pilot project will support the purchase and installation of single mode fiber, switches, patch panels, licenses, and Wi-Fi widgets at the Sterling Correctional Facility and Limon Correctional Facility. These activities will enable the DOC to utilize telehealth to improve health outcomes of the persons residing in the facilities, as well as open the opportunity to provide other support services to better meet the social, health, and educational needs of the population and improve security for DOC staff.
