Committee confirms two nominees to Corrections Information Council governing board
Summary
The Committee on the Judiciary and Public Safety approved two returning members, Natasha Dasher and Prischelle Shannon, to the District of Columbia Corrections Information Council Governing Board in a single consent block and vote during its March 26, 2026, virtual markup.
The Committee on the Judiciary and Public Safety moved and approved two confirmation resolutions to renominate Natasha Dasher and Prischelle Shannon to the District of Columbia Corrections Information Council (CIC) Governing Board.
Chair Brooke Pinto said the resolutions "will confirm Prischelle Shannon and Natasha Dasher to serve as members of the Corrections Information Council Governing Board." Pinto described the CIC as a body created by Congress in 1997 to investigate and inspect District correctional facilities and to advise the Bureau of Prisons and the District Department of Corrections on matters affecting District residents in BOP or DOC custody.
Pinto summarized each nominee's background as presented to the committee: Natasha Dasher was described as a current administrative officer at a federal energy management office and as a returning citizen with prior service on the District Commission on Reentry and Returning Citizens Affairs (2021'2023), including a term as commission chair. Prischelle Shannon was presented in the record as the CEO and co-founder of For Truth, a consulting organization that provides trauma-informed services to government and nonprofit entities and that has worked with the Department of Youth Rehabilitative Services. The committee moved the two nominations in block and approved the motion unanimously.
