The main changes are: To the extent the Legislature chooses to approve additional funding for ISUDTP, we recommend the approval of provisional budget language requiring that any budgeted funds not spent on the program revert to the General Fund. If additional funding for ISUDTP is approved, we recommend the Legislature also approve provisional budget language requiring any unspent funds revert to the General Fund. CBTprograms are designed to help individuals change negative patterns of behavior. Although not required to, CalPIA generally adheres to various guidelines issued by the California Department of Human Resources (CalHR) related to custodian classifications. Given that CDCRs ongoing need for the requested resources for redaction is unclear, we recommend the Legislature approve the proposed positions and funding on a twoyear, limitedterm basis (rather than on an ongoing basis as proposed by the Governor). MCC is awarded for successful completion of rehabilitative or educational programs designed to prepare participants to find employment upon release. We find that the proposal has merit. The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) is responsible for the incarceration of certain adult felons, including the provision of rehabilitation programs, vocational training, education, and health care services. As part of the 201415 budget, $15million in ongoing General Fund support was provided to CDCR to expand the program to health care facilities at all prisons statewide. It's also been met by more than 40 district attorney's suing the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitations (CDCR). As a result, this facility will no longer be used as a state prison. CDAA calls upon CDCR officials to immediately explain the system for releasing violent criminals especially those who have not fully engaged in rehabilitation programs. said Greg Totten, CDAA Chief Executive Officer. For example, it is unclear why the programs supported with vacant position funding will now require dedicated funds to continue to operate. 22, 2019Oct. Additionally, CDCR issued 12 weeks of credit to incarcerated people who had no rules violations between March 1, 2020 and July 5, 2020, excluding those serving life without the possibility of parole or who are condemned. The 201920 Budget Act provided $71million from the General Fund and 280 positions (increasing to $165million and 431 position in 202122 and ongoing) for CDCR to implement ISUDTP. CDCR reports that statewide about 14,000 inmates were enrolled in some sort of collegelevel course and 1,500inmates held an associates degree (either earned while in prison or before entering prison) asof July 2021. These individuals were not part of the rolling releases, and the number referred only to the number of people who were eligible for consideration. Only people who appear on the final list will be eligible for expedited release. All cases must be sent to Central Office for a decision. The Sacramento County district attorney's office told ABC10 CDCR has not been transparent. This is outrageous! The Division of Rehabilitative Programs (DRP) provides pre-release community programs located in communities throughout the State of California. ISUDT requires active involvement of all business areas within the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) and California Correctional Health Care Services (CCHCS) to provide timely and effective evidence-based treatment and transitions to incarcerated individuals with SUD. The NIDA Quick Screen consists of a series of scored questions about prior substance use. An award of up to 12 months of credit may be awarded to those who have performed a heroic act in a life-threatening situation or who have provided exceptional assistance in maintaining the safety and security of a prison. CDCR is expected to recalculate EPRDs and MEPDs in accord with the new regulations. Expands and Modifies ISUDTP. Accordingly, we withhold recommendation onthe proposal until that time. Accordingly, we recommend the Legislature direct CDCR to provide a revised ISUDTP proposal at the May Revision that is adjusted to reflect a lower inmate population. 17, 2019Sept. Wenote, however, that the 202122 budget provided $13.7million General Fund (decreasing to $3million in 202324 and ongoing) to expand rehabilitation programs available at Valley State Prison in Chowchilla, including establishing a bachelors degree program. As part of ISUDTP, CDCR revised and modified CBT programs in ways intended to better address inmates SUD treatment and rehabilitative needs. Cleaning health care facilities requires special care; a high standard of cleanliness; and continued sanitation of medical equipment, furniture, and spaces to eliminate the possibility of transmitting illnesses between patients. We find that the additional custodian supervisors to reflect a different staffing ratio are unnecessary. In addition, CalPIA indicates that an insufficient number of custodian supervisors has led to custodian supervisors not properly keeping inventory, not providing timely evaluations to custodians, not ensuring that the frequency of sanitation is reviewed daily, and allowing overfraternization between civil service and inmate custodians. In 2016, the voters of California passed Proposition 57, also known, in relevant part, as the Parole for Non-Violent Criminals Initiative. These releases, combined with extensive efforts focused on physical distancing, masking, and vaccination, resulted in the continued decline of COVID-19 cases in our institutions. CalPIA Also Employs Civil Service Custodians. Prisoners may earn up to one day of worktime credit for each actual day of incarceration, or a 50 percent reduction in the inmate's sentence. 23, 2019Dec. The total points accrued indicate whether a treatment plan needs to be developed to address an inmates need. This would help facilitate legislative oversight of the planned ISUDTP expansion and allow the Legislature to reallocate any unused funds towards its General Fund priorities. For example, CalHR is currently in the process of developing new guidelines on the ratio of custodian supervisors to custodian staff. In addition, the department proposes to redirect existing resources$883,000 and five positionsfrom its Contract Beds Unit to support redaction workload. Figure 3 provides information on the level of funding proposed for each activity. 180 calendar days may be awarded for completion of a high school diploma or high school equivalency approved by the Department of Education, successful completion of associate, bachelors and post-graduate degrees, and the OMCP. CONREP was mandated as a state . The department also supervises and treats about 46,200 adult parolees and is responsible for the apprehension of those parolees who commit parole violations. In addition, the proposal could increase the number of inmates who obtain sentencing credits for earning bachelors degrees, which would create state savings from reduced prison sentences. 8, 2019Oct. These releases allowed CDCR to create space within our institutions, an effort that was vital to mitigating the spread of COVID-19. The department intends to contract with the University of California to evaluatevarious aspects of ISUDTP in the future. It works to reduce recidivism rates for inmates. According to the administration, it plans to adjust the level of resources for ISUDTP annually based on changes in the inmate population beginning in 202324.

CalPIA Trains and Pays Inmate Workers to Clean Facilities. The additional custodian supervisors would allow the HFM program to transition from an average ratio of 1 custodian supervisor per 40civil service and inmate custodians to an average ratio of 1custodian supervisor per 20 civil service and inmate custodians by 202324. The average daily parolee population is projected to be 43,000 in 202223, a decrease of 4,700 parolees (20percent) from the estimated currentyear level. Accordingly, we recommend the Legislature withhold action on the proposal and direct the department to submit a revised proposal at the May Revision. Accordingly, inmates who are part of ISUDTP are assigned to SUD treatment based on whether they are assessed to have a medical need for such treatment. Furthermore, as noted above, the administrations current projections do not account for the effects of Chapter728. 11, 2020Feb. CDCR Reports Growing Redaction Workload. As a part of the May Revision, the administration will update these budget requests based on updated population projections. CDCR is continuing to release inmateswhen they come within 180 o r 365 days of their normal release datesas needed to respond to the pandemic. (When positions approved in the budget go unfilled, the funding received by departments associated with the positionsknown as vacant position fundingis often redirected by departments for other purposes.)

CalHR has initiated a project to provide new guidelines related to custodian classifications. North Kern State Prison Officials Investigating the Death of an Incarcerated Person as a Homicide. Specifically, the resources would be used to maintain programs at the four prisons that do not currently have dedicated state funding for bachelors degree programs.

The ASAM Criteria is a diagnostic tool that allows clinicians to assess various dimensionssuch as the presence of other related medical and behavioral health conditionsthat research has found can impact the effectiveness of SUD treatment types. We find that the proposed budget likely overestimates the projected inmate population and associated funding, potentially by several thousand inmates and roughly $100million. These civil service custodians work alongside the inmate custodians. Receiving & Release at Kern Valley State Prison. When fully implemented, the funding would allow CDCR to serve 420 inmates annually, with 180of those inmates being served by newly established programs. To identify a medical need for SUD treatment, health care staff screen inmates for SUD with the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) Quick Screen. The last list of potentially eligible people was created on July 29, 2021. Level of Resources Requested Likely TooHigh. DELANO - North Kern State Prison (NKSP) officials are investigating the death of Juan Villanueva as a homicide after he. CDCR then rescinded the changes to its "calculation methodology" and corrected some people's release dates. The202122 Budget Act provides $408million from the General Fund for CDCRs COVID19 response. Similarly, estimates for the amount of resources necessary to assess inmates SUD treatment needs assume that 3,000 inmates will be admitted each month. Four of the five existing inprison bachelors degree programs were established without dedicated funding being provided directly through the state budget. For example, between January 15, 2022 and January 29, 2022, the department reported 8,000 new cases. communicated with CDCR about these issues. Theproposed budget would provide CDCR with a total of about 65,300positions in 202223, an increase of about 3,200 (5percent) from the revised 202122 level. Watts reported that Sacramento mass shooting suspect Smiley Martin had earlier been denied parole after a fight with a fellow inmate and other criminal activity while behind bars. CalPIA also employs state civil service custodian supervisors to oversee both the civil service and inmate custodians. We acknowledge that CDCR will need additional funding in 202223 for COVID19 response. To the extent there are similar difficulties in initially filling the requested positions, it would correspondingly reduce the level of funding needed for ISUDTP in the budget year. Accordingly, it appears that these problems are not significant enough to impact the quality of service provided by HFM. & Rehabilitation, California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation Announces the Planned Closure of Chuckawalla Valley State Prison (Dec. 6, 2022), https://www.cdcr.ca.gov/news/2022/12/06/california-department-of-corrections-and-rehabilitation-announces-the-planned-closure-of-chuckawalla-valley-state-prison/.

Republican Assembly Leader James Gallagher, R-Yuba City, and a group of his colleagues are urging Newsom to suspend changes to a California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR). The CDCR proposed updated emergency regulations in December of 2021, in which inmates who participate in programs such as firefighting and are non-violent, may be released from prison early.. Specifically, OLA is responsible for managing PRA requests pursuant to Chapters 988 and 402 and DAI is responsible for managing other PRA requests as well as litigationrelated requests. Also,given that current research suggests that COVID19 is not commonly spread through surfaces, it is unclear why the department needs additional funding related to cleaning. Proposal Likely Will Need to Be Revised. In November 2016, California voters overwhelmingly passed Proposition 57, the Public Safety and Rehabilitation Act of 2016. The Governor's 202223 budget proposes $425 million onetime General Fund for CDCR COVID19 response activities including testing, vaccination surge capacity, custody overtime, and cleaning. One of the bills signed today is AB 1076 by Assemblymember Phil Ting (D-San Francisco), which will create an automated record clearance system for qualifying low-level offenses, so an individual's records can be sealed in a more efficient manner, as is their right pursuant to California law. Approve Resources on LimitedTerm Basis. (We note that inmate workers employed by CDCR to carry out other work assignments were paid an average of $.36 per hour between February2019andFebruary2020, the most recent data readily available.). Under Proposition 57, CDCR has incentivized incarcerated people to take responsibility for their own rehabilitation by providing credit-earning opportunities for sustained good behavior, as well as in-prison program and activities participation. In some cases, they have re-offended and committed even more serious crimes. As discussed in detail earlier in this brief, the projection of the inmate population for 202223 as assumed in the Governors budget is likely to be revised downward at the May Revision. Under the proposal, a person sentenced for second-degree murder or 15 years-to-life would be automatically eligible for parole after only serving 10 years. Impact of COVID19 on CDCR.

As a designated Second Chance Pell Institution, CSULA was able to receive federal funds to supportthe program. The Governors budget for 202223 proposes a total of 21.6 new positions and a $2.8million ongoing General Fund augmentation forCDCR to perform redaction workload. 29, 2019Oct.

The Governors budget proposes $8.6million General Fund in 202223 (increasing to $10.5million annually in 202324) to expand the scope of a CalPIA contract with CDCR for cleaning health care facilities to include additional facilities and support additional custodian supervisors to change the ratio of supervisor to custodial staff. Before such records can be released, sensitive informationsuch as names of witnesses or individuals medical informationmust be redacted from the records. Accordingly, to the extent the inmate population or admissions are lower than projected, it would reduce the level resources necessary for the program under the Governors proposal. If approved by the TRC, the application must be submitted to the Superintendent for a recommendation. SB 1391, a separate piece of legislation related to Prop 57, also frees prisoners, specifically those who were juveniles convicted of crimes as adults. Accordingly, we recommend that the Legislature only approve the costs associated with cleaning additional health care facilities. The public comment period ends on April 13, 2022. Accordingly, the state did not provide dedicated funds to establish these three bachelors degree programs. We recommend that the Legislature withhold action on the proposed resources for CDCRs 202223 COVID19 response and direct the department to submit a revised proposal at the May Revision. The currentyear net decrease in costs is primarily due to (1)the closure of lowsecurity facilities at the California Correctional Institution in Tehachapi and Correctional Training Facility in Soledad due to a decline in the number of inmates who can be housed in such facilities and (2)alower total inmate population relative to what was assumed in the202122 Budget Act. CDCR reports that the number and complexity of requests requiring redaction has grown in recent years, driven primarily by two factors: Responsibility for redaction is primarily divided between CDCRs Office of Legal Affairs (OLA) and Division of Adult Institutions (DAI), which is responsible for operating prisons.

After CDCR has fully implemented the new redaction software, its ongoing resource needs should become clearer. Release Program Studies and law enforcement notifications of people actually scheduled for expedited release will be provided as required by law through CDCR's normal processes. 2020-07-03T07:00:00Z. The 202122BudgetAct also includes a control section regarding the General Fund resources appropriated to nine specific departments (including CDCR) for COVID19related activitiestotaling $1.7billion. CDCR holds various types of recordsincluding emails, personnel files, video, and audiorecordingswhich it may be required to release under various circumstances, such as pursuant to the California Public Records Act (PRA) or due to litigation. (Based on the limited data available, we estimate that several million dollars of the requested funding is related to changing the supervisor to staff ratio.). In a series ofreports, Julie Watts of CBS News revealed the process by which CDCR is releasing prisoners is hidden from the public, arbitrary and dangerous. They can also earn extra credit on top of that for being in programs, qualifying even earlier to be released. Third, the proposal makes various modifications to existing ISUDTP services. We find that the level of resources requested for redaction workload appear reasonable in the near term. The Healthcare Facility Maintenance (HFM) program within CalPIA was initiated in 2013 on a pilot basis to clean selected inmate health care facilities. For example, the department suspended visiting and rehabilitation programs, reduced the density of dormitories by housing some inmates in open areas (such as gymnasiums), and suspended nonurgent health care services. In correspondence courses, inmates receive their lessons and assignments in packets that are delivered through the mail. (These amounts do not reflect anticipated increases in employee compensation costs in 202223 because they are accounted for elsewhere in the budget.) Asof January 12, 2022, the inmate population was 99,100and the administration indicated that the backlog of people housed in jails waiting to be admitted to prison had largely been eliminated. The regulations adopted May 1 quickly sparked a lawsuit by 44 California prosecutors complaining the rules would speed up the release of 76,000 inmates, despite CDCR's insistence that "this is not . As of January 28, 2022, CDCR has had a total of over 66,000 inmates and 36,000staff contract COVID19 during the course of thepandemic.

First, the proposal extends assessment to all inmates, andwhen necessarytreatment and release planning services, as originally intended by CDCR when the program was established. That means if you're sentenced to 10 years for domestic violence, you could get out after three years and four months, Dow said. Accordingly, it is likely that the Governors proposal will need to be revised in the spring based on updated data. This is notable because the overall level of funding being requested for ISUDTP is closely connected to the size of the inmate population. Written comments must be received or postmarked no later than April 13, 2022. These regulations also include increased credits for individuals in fire camps. The following pre-release community programs provide a wide range of rehabilitative services to ultimately aid in the participants transition and reintegration into the community. To accomplish this, as we discuss in more detail below, ISUDTP changed the way CDCR assesses inmates need for SUD treatment, provides SUD treatment and rehabilitation programs, and conducts the inmate release planning process. Counties will also get much-needed space for medical, educational, and other services.

The recent changes make it more possible for a good chunk of inmates to earn credit to leave prison, by allowing CDCR to. Increased credit-earning opportunities for all incarcerated persons except the condemned and those serving life without parole sentences: 4,344 incarcerated persons released between September 1 and November 30, 2022 earned an estimated average of 187.5 days of additional credit towards their advanced release date.

Peoplewho are addicted to certain substances (such as opioids or alcohol) can develop a chemical dependency. We note that in 202021one year after ISUDTP was implemented169 of the 431 positions approved for the program in that year were vacant. Thisdecrease in cost is partially offset by projected cost increases, primarily due to an increase in the number of inmates estimated to need mental health care relative to what was assumed in the 202122 Budget Act. The revised proposal should include adequate justification for the identified expenditures (such as estimates of the number of staff and inmates needing testing and personal protective equipment) and account for revised projections of the inmate population and any changes in pandemic conditions.
