Paso facility exodus begins
The youth correctional facility in Paso Robles will remain open through July, but some of the 350 employees who will be displaced are already leaving their positions.
"Employees are jumping ship and going to other facilities," said Christopher Dunn, a bargaining unit representative for the teachers, nurses, dental assistants and office workers at the facility. The state has promised to help the employees find other jobs in the wake of the impending closure. Dunn said he knows of at least six workers who already have found other jobs on their own, without transfer placement assistance.
