Taggart Boyd, Warden - Reception and Treatment CenterWarden Taggart Boyd

Taggart Boyd was appointed warden of the Lincoln Correctional Center and Diagnostic and Evaluation Center in December 2017. These facilities underwent significant expansion and were joined to become the Reception and Treatment Center (RTC) in spring of 2022.

When Warden Boyd joined NDCS in 2017, he brought extensive corrections experience, beginning his career in 1998 as an officer at the Marion Correctional Institution in Marion, Ohio. His positions with Ohio Department of Rehabilitation & Correction included case manager, unit manager, inspector and accreditation manager.

Warden Boyd also served as the associate deputy warden and deputy warden of operations at the North Central Correctional Complex in Marion, Ohio.   

A hockey enthusiast, he draws on the sport’s team mentality in his leadership style. 

“Similar to hockey, corrections is about building relationships and trust with our teammates, with our population, and with the public,” he said. “We begin by setting a foundation and building around it. It takes everyone on the team to have a successful season and every season we try to get better.” 

Warden Boyd holds a bachelor’s degree in criminology from The Ohio State University.
