On April 1, 1976, 400 prisoners were transported to DCI for the New Millennium from Angola and the era of satellite state prison camps was launched. Today, DCI is just one of ten such facilities and is rated to house 1,695 inmates with an operational capacity of 1,586 maximum, medium, and minimum custody inmates. In 1993, Dixon surpassed rigorous accreditation standards of the nationally recognized American Correctional Association with a 98% approval rating. Dixon has been routinely reevaluated by ACA inspectors. In 2008, ACA awarded DCI a 99.1% rating. Straight Low Magazine, the official inmate publication for DCI, was originally named DCI News & Views. Mrs. Rose Travis, then-Director of Inmate Programs at DCI, after becoming acclimated with daily prison jargon, renamed the publication to better reflect the aim of the DCI administration and inmate population. ADMINISTRATION “Tell the truth at all costs!” Mrs. Travis instructed her Bobby Jindal Governor inmate staff and Straight Low Magazine was born. James M. Le Blanc Secretary, DPS&C In 2001, Mrs. Travis died. In her memory each cover of Sheryl Ranatza Deputy Secretary, DPS&C Straight Low Magazine will bear a silhouette of a single Thomas Bickham Undersecretary, DPS&C rose.
