I am pleased to provide this reference for Mr. Joseph Allotey, who recently conducted our Department of Justice PREA Audit at Hickory Hill Recovery Center. Working with Joseph was an exceptional experience from start to finish. His communication was professional, responsive, and clear throughout every phase of the audit, and he consistently took the time to answer questions, provide guidance, and ensure the process remained smooth and manageable. During interviews and on-site activities, Joseph fostered a comfortable and engaging atmosphere while demonstrating a genuine interest in understanding our program and operations. As a first-time PREA Audit participant, I found his support, regular check-ins, and ability to explain PREA standards in a practical way both beneficial and reassuring. His professionalism, knowledge, attention to detail, and commitment to helping facilities succeed set him apart. I would recommend Joseph without hesitation to any organization seeking a PREA Auditor and would gladly welcome the opportunity to work with him again in the future.
