Wild Horse Inmate Program's First Birth

Randy Helm, Florence, AZ

The first ACI Wild Horse Inmate Program (WHIP) foal has a name! Thanks to all the staff who submitted some really great names. There were 207 entries sent in and after some deep discussion, the committee chose the name Justice sent in by Brian Radecki.

And as a bonus, after the name “Justice” was chosen, the 3 remaining top name choices are going to be given to horses in the program that need names. They are:

La Paz 1 Call Center Wins Safety Services Company's President Cup for June 2013

Begun in 2002 by a guy with a vision — and not much else — Safety Services Company has grown into one of INC Magazine’s Top 5,000 Companies for the sixth year in a row. “I knew that we could quickly become a major player in the untapped safety training and compliance market, if we could just reach businesses desperate for our services,” explained Devon Dickinson, founder and current board member.

Sewing Shops Step Up to Meet Huge Challenge

Congratulations to Michael Moreno, John Hawley and Francisco Garcia

In mid March, ACI received an order from the Correctional department worth over $3 million dollars. Department regulations dictated that this order had to be completed by the end of June (our fiscal year). Typically, an order of this size would take 5 or 6 months to complete, especially in conjunction with dozens of other standing and pending orders.

In other words, this huge order presented a significant challenge to our Florence, Perryville and Douglas sewing shops.
