PREA audits are conducted to reduce acts of sexual violence and facilities must comply with 43 standards. Higgason indicated that WCCRCF passed the two day audit with 100% compliance and no deficiencies. The federal audit staff indicated that WCCRCF was "one of the best facilities" that they had audited, according to Higgason.
The Winston County Sheriff's Office gives a big thank you to Warden Higgason and his staff at WCCRCF for all their work and efforts.
