Corrections Appreciation Week Spotlight: NSP property control corporal thankful for teammates

Leadership can be shown in a variety of ways throughout a person’s career. For Property Control Corporal Amanda Quinton, she shows it through improving efficiency at the Nebraska State Penitentiary (NSP). Quinton has been with the Nebraska Department of Correctional Services (NDCS) for more than a year. In that time, her supervisors have seen her dedication to NSP and her drive to help where she can. Quinton reorganized the property control room and enhanced the process of how the facility stores property at NSP. “I have found lost and missing property for different facilities and for people at NSP.”

Quinton said she first applied to the department because she was looking for a career that she could grow with and one that offered better benefits for her family. “I enjoy many things about my job. I love the people I work with, enjoy that I get to keep things organized and really make a difference.”

During Corrections Appreciation Week, Quinton said she truly appreciates all her teammates. But wants to show her appreciation to all of the other property corporals at NDCS facilities. “These #teammates have been so helpful with my transition into property control as well as answering any questions I have. #ThankYou!”

During #CorrectionsAppreciationWeek, teammates continue to do their part to keep NDCS facilities running smoothly as they work to prevent the transmission of COVID-19. Quinton said she focuses on keeping herself, her family and teammates healthy through the pandemic. “I try to limit the amount of times I go out during the week. At work, I wear my mask, wash my hands, I always wear gloves when going through property and make sure to clean my area multiple times a day.”


Thank you for what you do!
