                       Tuesday, November 16, 1999

  Mr. TOWNS. Mr. Speaker, I want to recognize the achievements of Jack 
A. Brown III.
  Jack is a native New Yorker who was born and raised on the lower east 
side of Manhattan. He currently resides, in my district, in the Clinton 
Hill section of Brooklyn. Jack has had a distinguished 7-year career 
with the Correctional Services Corporation (CSC). The Corporation is a 
private company contracted by local, State and Federal Corrections 
Department to provide concrete services to the inmate population. As 
the vice president of Correctional Services Corporation Community 
Services Division, Mr. Brown maintains overall responsibility for the 
day to day operations of the five New York programs. These programs, 
three for the Federal Bureau of Prisons and two for the New York State 
Department of Corrections, are designed to provide inmates with the 
tools necessary to successfully reintegrate back into their prospective 
communities as self-sufficient, responsible, law abiding citizens.
  Prior to his employment with CSC, Jack served as an officer in the 
United States Army's Air Defense Artillery Division for 4 years. He is 
a graduate of the State University of New York at Buffalo with a 
Bachelor's degree in Human Services, with a concentration in mental 
health, and Biology. During his academic years, he gained invaluable 
experience in the field of human services holding positions as 
Physiatrics Counselor, Chemical Dependency Counselor and Youth 
Counselor. In December, Jack expects to earn a double Masters degree, 
an MBA and a Master of Science and Economic Development, from the 
University of new Hampshire.
  I wish Jack Brown success in his future endeavors and I commend his 
achievements to my colleagues' attention.
