We want to hear from you about the proposal to close Rockview state prison, Quehanna Boot Camp

Gov. Josh Shapiro’s administration last week proposed closing Rockview state prison and Quehanna Boot Camp, a move with the potential to upend thousands of lives in Centre County.

From the workforce and inmates to the economy and the land itself, the proposal could have some of the most far-reaching effects in at least the past decade in Centre County. That’s part of the reason we want to hear from you about your experiences, concerns and opinions.

Should you fill out the form and provide your contact information, you can expect a Centre Daily Times reporter to contact you. That does not mean your name is guaranteed to appear in an article.

Maybe you have a tip or story suggestion but don’t want to identify yourself. That’s OK, your information could still be helpful in pursuing future articles. Or maybe you’d like to share how this proposal will affect your family.

Either way, the CDT will not share your name or details without your consent. Prior to any conversation, we can discuss the conditions under which you feel comfortable speaking. We want to hear from you.
