Every day is a commencement. It is the end of one thing and, at the same time, the start of something new.
It is a gift with which to exercise our talents in concert with our fellow employees on behalf of The GEO Group.
GEO aspires to be a world leader in government outsourced services that are diversified in their scope and uniquely professional in their quality.
This vision can only be accomplished and sustained by an organization that has the necessary depth of talent which is united in its purpose.
Working together, we will shape our remarkable new future one day at a time.
All levels of government (federal, state and local) are being pressured to relieve prison overcrowding and by public opinion to impose longer sentences and resist early release programs based on insufficient jail space. Limited financial resources and resistance to tax increases compound this dilemma. The GEO Group, Inc. (GEO) offers privatized detention/correctional facilities as a viable solution.
As a contractor in a competitive arena, GEO's cadre of corrections professionals are motivated to find cost effective and innovative approaches and also provide the highest quality service possible. GEO provides all levels of secured facilities.
As an integral part of any correctional program, GEO has developed an expanding reputation as a provider of quality basic education programs, vocational training, substance abuse counseling and job seeking skills. Its operation of detention/correctional facilities also includes food services, medical care, building and grounds maintenance, transportation and full logistical support.
As public administrators become increasingly supportive of efforts by the private sector to assume tasks traditionally performed by government entities, GEO is in the forefront, providing leadership and innovation to this expanding service industry.
GEO brings to the marketplace an extraordinary reservoir of knowledge and expertise, unparalleled in the industry and well prepared for the challenges of the future.
