Kellie Honeycutt

Hello,  

My name is Kellie Honeycutt.  I am married and have 2 children, I am currently employed by Coffeewood Correctional Center and effective June 1st ,I will be the secretary of the VCCA. 

My career began in 1994, fresh from graduating from Radford University with a degree in Criminal Justice.  I started at Staunton Correctional Center where I worked for about 1 ½ years.  I then, at the request of White Post, laterally transferred to White post Unit 7.  I worked there until 2002 when I was promoted to Probation & parole Officer when the position was converted from Camp 7 to Detention and Diversion.  I remained there until 2002.  I then resigned the position to return to school and move to Michigan.  It was a great time in my career to attend Cosmetology School.  I did this and graduated with honors and a license to cut hair. 

In 2004, I returned to state service with the VA Dept. of Social Services-Child Support Enforcement.  I worked with them for 4 years and resigned that position to be closer to home and I was expecting a child and having medical difficulties.  I worked momentarily for the City of Waynesboro for a grant funded position.  My job was completely funded by grants and with the economy struggling, my grand was not re-issued. 

It was then I applied, and became part of, the Coffeewood family.  As a counselor here, I am the job PAR, I teach the in-service class for staff, train new counselors, back up the grievance coordinator, I am the COMPAS Coach, as well as the regular counselor duties.  I also have been elected to serve as the VCCA Secretary as the current one is vacating the position. 

I am in my late 11th or early 12th year of DOC service and hope to retire from the Department.
