Official Bio:

Joan Palmateer spent 30 years working in Oregon’s correctional facilities, starting as a correctional officer and eventually becoming the first female warden at the Oregon State Penitentiary in its 150-year history in 1998, and the founding superintendent of Coffee Creek Correctional Facility in Wilsonville in 2001. She also served as prison administrator for the Oregon Department of Corrections, responsible for oversight of 13 superintendents in 14 prisons across the entire system ranging from minimum to super maximum security. She also spent three years with the Oregon Youth Authority as assistant director of facilities and operations.

After retirement she has continued with consulting and other work, and will be presenting on the Gender Informed Practices Assessment, or GIPA, at Coffee Creek Correctional Facility. The GIPA provides prisons with a measured assessment of their adherence to sound principles of gender responsive, trauma-informed, and evidence-based policies, programming, and practices, from admission to release. Specifically, it explores the degree to which a facility has implemented these approaches.
