The bill proposes to rename the "Department of Corrections" to the "Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation" in the South Dakota Codified Laws. This change will be reflected in all future supplements and revisions, ensuring that the new terminology is consistently used throughout the legal code.
Additionally, the title "secretary of corrections" will also be updated to "secretary of corrections and rehabilitation," with similar provisions for its derivatives. This legislative change aims to emphasize a rehabilitative approach within the corrections system, aligning the department's name with its intended mission.
