Description
The Prison Staffing Tracker is a tool maintained by the City Controller’s Office to provide clear, up-to-date information on staffing levels and vacancies across the prison system. Updated regularly, the tracker is designed to promote transparency and accountability by giving Philadelphians insight into how correctional facilities are staffed and where critical gaps exist. By making this data accessible, the tool helps the public better understand ongoing challenges within the prison system and supports informed discussion around public safety and resource needs.
