FOREWORD
In July 2012, the Legislature tasked the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) with
monitoring the adherence to The Future of California Corrections: A Blueprint to Save
Billions of Dollars, End Federal Court Oversight, and Improve the Prison System (the
Blueprint), issued by the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR
or the department)
The department was recently tasked with updating its comprehensive plan for the state
prison system, as much has changed since it issued the original Blueprint. On January 20,
2016, the department issued An Update to the Future of California Corrections. The
department’s updated plan includes a summary of goals identified and progress made
from the initial plan, along with its future vision in rehabilitative programming and safety
and security.
To monitor implementation of its initial Blueprint, the Legislature passed and the
Governor signed legislation adding language to California Penal Code, Section 6126,
mandating that the OIG periodically review delivery of the reforms identified in the
Blueprint, including, but not limited to, the following specific goals and reforms
described in the Blueprint:
1. The establishment of and adherence to the standardized staffing model at each
institution;
2. The establishment of and adherence to the new inmate classification score system;
3. The implementation of and adherence to the comprehensive housing plan
described in the Blueprint;
4. Whether the department has increased the percentage of inmates served in
rehabilitative programs to 70 percent of the department’s target population prior
to the inmates’ release; and
5. The establishment of and adherence to the new prison gang management system,
including changes to the department’s current policies for identifying
prison-based gang members and associates and the use and conditions associated
with the department’s security housing units.
To assess and monitor the reforms published in the Blueprint, the OIG identified
measurable benchmarks in the Blueprint, researched the various aspects of the
benchmarks, collected and assessed documents and electronic databases, interviewed
numerous staff from the CDCR and the Department of Finance (DOF), developed a
monitoring tool, and compared the assessment results with goals identified in the
Blueprint. The OIG also performed on-site reviews at each of the adult institutions that
included the review and reconciliation of documents, interviews of staff, and observations.
This report represents the results of the OIG’s seventh review of CDCR’s implementation
of the original Blueprint issued in 2012. Many of the reforms contained in the initial
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint
Office of the Inspector General State of California
Blueprint had implementation dates into fiscal year 2015-16; however, the first two
components—standardized staffing and the inmate classification score system—have
already been completed. As for the third component, many of the housing plans have
been, or are nearing completion. The two remaining components from the initial Blueprint
that have yet to be accomplished are the rehabilitation goal and the gang step-down
program. It should be noted that the Ashker v. Brown settlement agreement has impacted
the gang step-down program. The new update to the Blueprint outlines numerous goals,
including a modified target for rehabilitation, an information technology solution to track
offender specific outcomes, and a system to deliver medical, mental health, and substance
abuse treatment to Medi-Cal eligible offenders. The update identifies several pilot
programs for inmate access to community college courses, in-prison sex offender
treatment, drug and contraband interdiction, and parole violators. It also includes an
expansion of the in-prison substance abuse treatment program, long-term offender
program, alternative custody program, as well as community reentry programs and
alternative community placements. This seventh report is based on information from
December 1, 2015, through March 7, 2016. Subsequent reports will assess the remaining
goals from the initial Blueprint and its progress in meeting future benchmarks and goals
identified in the update to the Blueprint issued in January 2016.
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint Foreword
Office of the Inspector General State of California
REHABILITATIVE PROGRAMS
The department provides in-prison programming to adult offenders, including academic
education, career technical education (formerly “vocational”), substance abuse treatment,
cognitive behavioral treatment programs, transitional services, and employment
programs. In the Blueprint, the department indicated its goal is to increase the percentage
of inmates served in rehabilitative programs to 70 percent of the department’s target
population prior to the inmates’ release. The Blueprint does not identify a milestone for
when the goal is to be met; however, CDCR identified June 30, 2015, as the projected
completion date.1
The department also makes use of community programming to inmates released from
prison. The department indicated its goal, as stated in the Blueprint, is to build program
capacity by fiscal year 2013–14 to accommodate 70 percent of parolees who have a need
for substance abuse treatment, employment services, or education within their first year
of being released from prison.
In-Prison Target Population
The department uses concepts identified in the California Logic Model to determine its
target population for rehabilitative programs. That model requires the calculation of an
inmate’s risk to reoffend coupled with an assessment of the inmate’s criminogenic needs
to determine whether the inmate is included in the target population.
The department uses the results of the California Static Risk Assessment (CSRA) tool to
identify an inmate’s risk to reoffend. The level of an inmate’s criminogenic need is
assessed based on the results of the Correctional Offender Management Profiling for
Alternative Sanctions (COMPAS) tool. If the CSRA results show a high or moderate risk
to reoffend, and the results of COMPAS show a high or medium need in any of the
criminogenic categories, the inmate becomes part of CDCR’s target population for
rehabilitation.2,3
Data summarized in the following table indicates that as of January 31, 2016, 98 percent
of the 124,497-inmate population had received a CSRA risk assessment, and 79 percent
had received a COMPAS assessment. Of those inmates with a CSRA assessment, 60,329
(51 percent) had a high or moderate risk to reoffend. Of those, 55,320 inmates
1 CDCR’s revised Strategic Plan identified June 30, 2015, as the date to reach the 70 percent rehabilitation
goal.
2 The criminogenic need categories can include any of the following: substance abuse, anger, employment
problems (incorporated academic and career technical needs), criminal personality (formerly “criminal
thinking”), and support from family of origin (formerly “family criminality”).
3 Being included in the target population does not necessarily trigger the placement of inmates into specific
programs. The results of COMPAS assessments are used for placement into cognitive behavioral treatment
and employment programs, but CDCR uses individual case factors for placement into other programs, such
as the Test of Adult Basic Education (TABE) results for placement into academic programs.

(44 percent) were identified as having a high or medium criminogenic need, thus
representing the target population on that day. To reach its rehabilitative goal, the
department would need to serve 38,724 out of 55,320 (70 percent) inmates in
rehabilitative programs prior to the inmates’ release.

Measure Progress—Ensure Program Accountability
The department’s goal is to ensure that at least 70 percent of offenders identified as
having moderate to high risk and needs receive evidence-based programming consistent
with their criminogenic needs prior to release.
While the department has made progress in implementing some measures to reach some
benchmarks identified in the Blueprint, it was unable to attain its goal of reaching 70
percent of the target population by June 30, 2015. During fiscal year 2014–15, the
department demonstrated a 56 percent rate of accomplishment (for all and some needs
addressed). So far, during the first two quarters of fiscal year 2015-16, its current rate of
accomplishment is 53 percent, slightly below its percentage from the past fiscal year.
The tables on the following page identify inmates who were released during the first two
quarters of fiscal year 2015–16, as well as the results for fiscal year 2014–15 and whether
the inmates received evidence-based rehabilitative programming consistent with their
criminogenic needs prior to release. The numbers in the category of “one need addressed”
indicate that offenders had criminogenic needs in multiple categories and participated in a
rehabilitative program that was consistent with at least one, but not all, identified needs.
The department considers “all needs addressed” for inmates who have participated in
rehabilitative services in each of their criminogenic needs.
It should also be noted that whether the inmate attended only one day of class or
completed the entire program, the department counts that attendance as participation.
Additionally, the counting rule scores all programming towards addressing offender
needs. The OIG has previously stated, and the department concedes, that this is a poor
measurement standard. The department’s Division of Rehabilitative Programs (DRP) is
currently working with the OIG to determine a more meaningful measure of
participation, such as a reasonable program completion percentage or an average number
4 See Appendix B for a breakdown of the percentages of inmates with core COMPAS assessments.

of days in a program, to count as successfully addressing an offender’s needs. The DRP
has established a workgroup to analyze data and develop proposals for a possible
counting rule change. Additionally, it is important to note that these figures only pertain
to offenders who received a Core COMPAS assessment. Using department figures as of
January 31, 2016, 79 percent of the eligible population had completed a Core COMPAS
assessment.5

Also, separate from the department’s goal of reaching 70 percent of the target population
by June 30, 2015, the department analyzed its target population to determine if those
inmates were assigned to a rehabilitative program, whether it was consistent with an
assessed need or not. The department’s data shows steady improvement in this area, as
the second quarter of fiscal year 2015–16, showed that approximately 73 percent of the
target population attended a program. The department predominantly attributes this to
offenders who may not have an assessed academic need, but who continued with their
pursuit of higher education.
Deliver Programs
The department is working to increase the percentage of offenders served in rehabilitative
programs to 70 percent of the department’s target population prior to their release. The
department implemented the Blueprint priority placement criteria that selects program
placement based on an offender’s risk status. Offenders who do not meet the target
criteria are lowest on the priority lists and may not be assigned to programming. Priority
placement criteria are not exclusionary and allow lifers to be prioritized and participate in
programming if they meet the criteria. As illustrated in the chart below, 62 percent
5 “Eligible population” refers to those offenders not excluded from receiving a COMPAS assessment, such
as those designated enhanced outpatient program (EOP) level of care or higher, life-without-parole, life-
term, condemned, and those housed in conservation camps, community correctional facilities, and out-of-
state facilities.

(34,056 inmates) of the department’s target population is within 48 months of release.
The remaining target population, approximately 38 percent (20,866 inmates), are inmates
with over 49 months left to serve who predominantly have not yet been assigned to a
reentry hub, thus providing an obstacle in the department’s ability to reach its 70 percent
goal.

In-Prison Program Placement—Reentry Hubs
Reentry hubs are established to provide relevant rehabilitation services to inmates who
are within 48 months of being released and who have demonstrated a willingness to take
advantage of such services. The Blueprint identified 13 institutions to be designated as
reentry hubs by providing education, employment, cognitive behavioral treatment, and
substance abuse programs. However, the department’s implementation of certain
programs at these reentry hubs was delayed, due in part to the contract protest process
and no viable bids for some selected sites during the first bid release. Subsequent to the
Blueprint, the department implemented reentry programming services at four in-state
contract facilities6 as well as the leased California City Correctional Facility (CAC).
In determining operational status for each of the 13 reentry hubs, along with CAC, the
OIG determined that a course needed to have a corresponding instructor, an assigned
classroom, and data showing monthly inmate attendance. Based on OIG fieldwork in
December 2015 and January 2016, all course types are operational. See Appendix A for
details statewide and by institution.

In-Prison Program Placement—Develop Case Management Plan
According to the Blueprint, a component critical to successful implementation of the
rehabilitation plan is an effective case management system. A case management plan (or
behavior management plan) is an integral part of effective rehabilitation programming.
Case management plans ensure that offenders are assigned to the appropriate programs
based on their overall risk potential identified on their criminogenic needs assessments.
Case management plans help staff determine the type, frequency, and timing of
programming an inmate should receive to most effectively reduce the likelihood of his or
her reoffending. This case plan should also transfer with the inmate upon release to
parole or to county supervision; case plans assist with identifying the most effective
follow-up programming based on programming received during incarceration, individual
goals met, and other vital information collected during the course of incarceration.
The department is currently managing cases by assessing inmates’ needs at reception
centers and using an assignment process based on priority placements. The Test of Adult
Basic Education (TABE) scores and the inmates’ classification levels are used to make
program placements through its standard classification process. Individual case factors
are reviewed and assessed by a classification committee, which then determines program
and housing placements.
The department is currently working with a software developer to create a Rehabilitative
Case Plan (ReCaP) and anticipates a few months for development. The project team will
then begin testing and finalizing the software for deployment. The official project
schedule is planned for release in March 2016, and the department is targeting its release
for late-summer or early-fall 2016, depending on requirements and scope of the project.
The vision is that upon entering prison, every eligible inmate will have a roadmap for
successful rehabilitation for the period of his or her incarceration.
In-Prison Programs—Miscellaneous Benchmarks
The Blueprint identified miscellaneous benchmarks in its narrative and Appendix B
(through fiscal year 2013–14). Thus, the OIG obtained rehabilitative programming
figures for fiscal year 2015-16 from the department’s Division of Rehabilitative
Programs (DRP) and Office of Correctional Education (OCE) to continue monitoring its
benchmarks of measurable figures.
The OIG performed fieldwork to determine the operational status of the various programs
at each institution. In order to determine the operational status of programs, the OIG
acquired the rehabilitation authorized position counts per institution from CDCR. The
OIG discussed any discrepancies with the education managers at the institutions,
reviewed monthly attendance reports, and conducted spot checks of classrooms. As noted
previously, in order to be deemed fully operational, a course needed to have a
corresponding instructor, an assigned classroom, and data showing monthly inmate
attendance.
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 5 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
Appendix A provides a detailed comparison of the rehabilitation programs provided at
each institution, identifying the programs as planned for by the department and their
operational status from visits occurring in December 2015 and January 2016. In addition
to Appendix A, the following summary discusses the current status of various programs
identified in the Blueprint and DRP’s fiscal year 2015–16 data. In short, the OIG’s
fieldwork at all prisons found that 88 percent of the academic education programs are
operational, 83 percent of the career technical education (CTE) programs are operational,
and 99 percent of the substance abuse treatment slots, at reentry hubs, are filled. From the
last OIG C-ROB report issued in September 2015, this represents a 1 percent decrease in
academic education programs, a 7 percent increase in CTE programs, and an 11 percent
increase in substance abuse treatment participation. Thus, the department has achieved an
increase in operational courses and in overall participation in substance abuse.
Academic Education: The department identified a total of 521 academic positions
(general population, alternative programming, and voluntary education program) to
become operational during fiscal year 2015–16.
From December 2015 through January 2016, OIG staff reviewed the institutions’
documents and performed 34 site visits to determine whether 521 academic positions, as
provided by DRP, were fully operational, as shown in Appendix A. At the conclusion of
the fieldwork, the OIG found 461 of the 521 positions were fully operational, which
represents an 88 percent rate of compliance. The primary reasons academic courses were
not operational were due to teacher vacancies (long-term sick, workers’ compensation,
retirement, recruitment, long-term disability, etc.), and some courses having no inmate
enrollments (lack of eligible inmate-students for ABE and GED courses). This represents
a one percent decrease from that identified in the last C-ROB report.
Career Technical Education: The department identified a total of 283 CTE positions to
become operational during fiscal year 2015–16.
From December 2015 through January 2016, OIG staff reviewed the institutions’
documents and performed site visits to determine whether 283 CTE positions were fully
operational. At the conclusion of the fieldwork, the OIG found 235 of the 283 positions
were fully operational, which represents an 83 percent rate of compliance. The primary
reason CTE courses were not operational were due to teacher vacancies similar to the
academic vacancies listed above. This represents a 7 percent increase from that identified
in the last C-ROB report.
Substance Abuse Treatment: The Blueprint stated that the substance abuse treatment
programs would be located at reentry hubs; however, the department has since added
substance abuse programs as part of its Long Term Offender Program and single or
multi-level programs at 11 non-reentry-hub institutions. To remain consistent with prior
OIG reports, the summary provided below will include substance abuse treatment
programs at only the reentry hubs and CAC, while the other substance abuse programs
are discussed later in the Long Term Offender Model section. The DRP planned to
provide 1,596 treatment slots for fiscal year 2015-16.
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 6 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
From December 2015 through January 2016, OIG staff reviewed the institutions’
documents and performed site visits to determine whether 1,596 substance abuse
treatment slots were fully operational. At the conclusion of the OIG’s fieldwork, 1,587
inmates occupied the 1,596 operational slots, which represent a 99 percent rate of
compliance. This is an increase of 11 percent from the last C-ROB report. The 1,587
inmates participating in the substance abuse program are from each of the 13 reentry hubs
and CAC.
Cognitive Behavioral Treatment (CBT), formerly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy: The
Blueprint identified these programs to begin implementation during fiscal year 2013–14,
while the DRP continued these programs during fiscal year 2015-16. The programs
include courses in criminal thinking, anger management, and family relationships. From
December 2015 through January 2016, OIG staff reviewed the institutions’ documents
and performed site visits to determine whether CBT programs were implemented. The
OIG found that 2,227 of the planned 2,364 slots were fully operational, which represents
a 94 percent rate of compliance. This is an increase of 10 percent from the last report.
Pre-Employment Transition (PET): The Blueprint identified that the pre-employment
transitions program would be expanded to all reentry hubs. These services were to
include job readiness skills prior to an inmate’s release, primarily during the last six
months of incarceration. From December 2015 through January 2016, OIG staff reviewed
the institutions’ documents and performed site visits to determine whether transitions
programs were implemented at the reentry hubs. The OIG found that 483 of the planned
675 slots were fully operational, which represents a 72 percent rate of compliance. This is
an increase of 18 percent from the last report. The low rate of compliance is mainly due
to 120 non-operational slots caused by pending contracts at the California Substance
Abuse Treatment Facility and State Prison, Corcoran (SATF) and Valley State Prison
(VSP), as well as SATF’s conversion to a reentry facility.
Additionally, the Blueprint stated the California Identification Card program (CAL-ID)
would be implemented to assist eligible inmates in obtaining State-issued identification
cards to satisfy federal requirements for employment documentation. In November 2013,
the Division of Rehabilitative Programs (DRP) entered into a contract with the California
Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), to process CAL-IDs for inmates who are being
released from custody. The interagency agreement allowed up to 12,000 identification
cards annually with a maximum of 1,000 cards per month.
In September 2014, the Governor signed legislation expanding the CAL-ID program to
mandate that all eligible inmates released from custody have valid identification cards.
On July 1, 2015, the department entered into an interagency agreement with the DMV in
order to comply with Penal Code Section 3007.05 and expand the CAL-ID program to all
35 CDCR institutions. The expansion interagency agreement allows the department to
purchase over 20,000 identification cards annually with a maximum of 1,722 cards per
month. The department purchases the identification cards at a reduced fee and senior
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 7 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
identification cards are provided at no cost. The cards are provided free of charge to all
inmates regardless of age.
According to the department, between July 1, 2015 and December 31, 2015,
approximately 6,084 applications were sent to the DMV for processing. The DMV has
approved approximately 5,105 applications and sent the identification cards to the
institutions for issuance. The average eligibility rate is 84 percent.
Designated Enhanced Programming Yards: On January 1, 2014, the department
designated enhanced programming facilities (EPF) or yards to incentivize positive
behavior at seven institutions. The majority of the EPFs have been in place for over two
years. However, in 2014, the department designated a new level IV EPF at Calipatria
State Prison (CAL) and in 2015, California City Correctional Facility (CAC) and Avenal
State Prison (ASP) were designated as level II EPFs. The ten designated EPFs are located
at the following institutions and security levels:
• Avenal State Prison, level II, all facilities
• Calipatria State Prison, level IV, facility A
• California City Correctional Facility, level II, all facilities
• California State Prison, Corcoran, level IV, facility B
• California Substance Abuse Treatment Facility, level III, facility E
• High Desert State Prison, level IV, facility C
• Kern Valley State Prison, level IV, facility B
• Pleasant Valley State Prison, level III, facility C
• Salinas Valley State Prison, level IV, facility B
• Valley State Prison, level II, all facilities
From December 2015 through January 2016, the OIG performed site visits at the EPFs,
interviewed CDCR management responsible for the designated EPFs, and sampled 115
offenders housed at two EPFs. It was encouraging that the majority of the institutions
have reported positive changes as a result of the EPFs, including improved behavior, less
violence, and fewer rules violation reports (RVRs). Most institutions report that the EPFs
provide offenders with an incentive to improve their behavior and offer additional self-
help groups and programming opportunities.
However, several of the EPFs housing high security offenders have not had similar
success. These institutions cited the existing culture of violence and “strong politics on
the yard” as the main challenges to a successful EPF. According to institution
management at EPFs, allowing participation of high security offenders (through
“grandfathering” or new arrivals), regardless of their past behavior, has resulted in a
portion of the population who continue to demonstrate negative behavior. In June 2014,
the department implemented a process to address EPF “program failures” after placement
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 8 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
on an EPF, for those receiving an RVR that met exclusionary factors7, by scheduling and
referring offenders for transfer at the next Unit Classification Committee (UCC).
The OIG reviewed 50 level III inmates and 65 level IV inmates at two EPF facilities, and
found two primary challenges. First, placement into the EPF program for new level IV
arrivals is not based on behavior and willingness to meet programming expectations, but
by necessity due to a lack of level IV bed space. Second, inmates who receive RVRs for
exclusionary factors at the EPF are not being referred for transfer and removed from the
EPF.
As shown in the table below, the level IV EPF had 42 out of 65 inmates (65 percent) with
no RVRs in the past 12 months. From the 23 inmates who did receive RVRs, 15 inmates
(65 percent) were initially recommended for transfer to another non-EPF level IV facility
and were new arrivals; while the remaining 8 inmates (35 percent) were existing EPF
inmates. Due to a lack of level IV bed space, each of the 15 inmates was redirected by an
“auditor action” to the EPF. For 12 of the 15 inmates (80 percent), each had received
RVRs for exclusionary factors in the past 12 months—controlled substance and alcohol
related behavior (6 inmates), security housing unit (SHU) term (5 inmates), and security
threat group (STG) behavior (1 inmate). Due to the Ashker v. Brown settlement
agreement, and subsequent to the OIG site visits, validated STG inmates who have been
released from an Administrative SHU term in the last 12 months may now be housed at
EPF facilities. The remaining three inmates had received RVRs for not adhering to
behavioral expectations in order to remain on an EPF, such as refusing a cellmate.
Additionally, only 1 of 6 inmates who received an RVR for an exclusionary factor
(“program failures”) was recommended to transfer by the UCC to a non-EPF facility.

statement was supported as 4 of the 7 inmates with RVRs for an exclusionary factor were
transferred to another building within the EPF facility; while only 1 of the 7 inmates was
recommended for transfer to a non-EPF facility.
Without adequate bed space, department staff is compelled to utilize level IV EPFs (5 out
of 10 EPF institutions) for housing despite the requirement that EPFs only be used for
offenders with a willingness to meet programming expectations. Since the intent of the
EPFs is to incentivize and reinforce positive life choices, placing ineligible offenders or
not transferring “program failures” defeats the purpose of the program. The department
should examine this issue with input from the affected facilities and find solutions to the
housing problem that will not adversely impact the success of the EPF program,
especially in light of the recent decision to allow validated STG inmates to be housed
there.
Long-Term Offender Model: The Blueprint called for the development of a long-term
offender reentry model to be piloted at three institutions projected to have a substantial
population of long-term offenders. The Long-Term Offender Program (LTOP) is a
voluntary program that provides evidenced-based treatment to offenders who are serving
long-term sentences. The pilot program was designed based on the reentry program
model. The department implemented substance abuse disorder treatment, criminal
thinking, anger management, victim’s impact, and family relationships cognitive
behavioral modalities.
On February 11, 2014, the Office of Administrative Law authorized the LTOP, and it has
been implemented at the California Men’s Colony (CMC), California State Prison,
Solano (SOL), and the Central California Women’s Facility (CCWF).
From December 2015 through January 2016, OIG staff confirmed implementation of
substance abuse treatment programs implemented at each of the three LTOP institutions, and
at 11 non-reentry-hub institutions through single or multi-level modalities, e.g. outpatient,
intensive outpatient, or modified therapeutic community treatment. During site visits, the
OIG found 881 out of 1,068 inmates planned (82 percent) were participating. Also, the three
LTOP institutions at CMC, SOL, and CCWF implemented cognitive behavioral treatment
programs, serving 480 of the 480 offenders planned (100 percent), and pre-employment
transitions (PET) programs, serving 48 of the 72 offenders planned (67 percent).
The PET program faces some challenges. For example, when an offender drops from the
5-week course, another offender is not added until the next session begins, and program
eligibility is dependent on offenders having received a parole grant. Recently the
department submitted a budget proposal, included in the Governor’s Budget released in
January 2016, to expand the LTOP to a Level III or IV institution to better serve the
target population and to provide program opportunities for offenders who will become
eligible for a parole suitability hearing under the Youth Offender and Elderly Offender
criteria. The department is in the process of identifying an institution that would be a
viable option for the LTOP expansion.

Office of the Inspector General State of California
Additionally, the Offender Mentor Certification Program (OMCP) continues to provide
an opportunity for long-term inmates to complete a certification program in alcohol and
other drug counseling. Inmates are recruited from various institutions and transferred for
training at one of three sites: the Central California Women’s Facility (CCWF), Valley
State Prison (VSP), or California State Prison, Solano (SOL). Once the candidates pass
the written California Association for Alcohol/Drug Educators (CAADE) examination,
the inmate-mentors are transferred back to their original institutions and are paid to
obtain their 4,000 hours of work experience by co-facilitating substance abuse treatment.
The department also submitted a budget proposal, included in the Governor’s Budget
released in January 2016, to expand the OMCP from three to four sessions per year. Each
session would continue to have up to 36 candidates per training session with an
opportunity for up to 144 candidates annually.
Sex Offender Treatment: The Blueprint called for the development of services for sex
offenders and the piloting of the model at one institution in fiscal year 2013–14. The
treatment program will place a heavy emphasis on skill-building activities to assist with
cognitive behavioral treatment and social, emotional, and coping skills development.
There were 80 slots planned for participants, and the program length was to be 18
months. The department selected the Substance Abuse Treatment Facility as the location
for the sex offender treatment pilot and began the bid process in September 2013.
However, the department did not receive any bids for the contract. The department began
working on an interagency agreement with the Department of State Hospitals for the
delivery of the program. In June 2014, the Department of State Hospitals discontinued
those discussions.
The department then began working toward establishing its own in-prison sex offender
treatment program. The department received permission to establish and fill five new
positions: one supervising psychiatric social worker and four clinical social workers. The
department also entered into an agreement with the University of Cincinnati Corrections
Institute to provide training and coaching in the utilization of its Cognitive Behavioral
Treatment for Sexual Offenders curriculum.
The department’s Cognitive Behavioral Interventions for Sex Offenders (CBI-SO) pilot
program is intended to serve offenders who are required to register pursuant to Penal
Code Section 290, are within 13 months of their scheduled release date, and will be
mandated to participate in the community-based treatment programs upon release. The
Office of Administrative Law approved the Instructional Memorandum and the
department is currently working to move participants into the program. The CBI-SO pilot
program will be initiated at the Substance Abuse Treatment Facility and will include a
maximum of 80 offenders. The program will be delivered up to three hours per day, five
days per week, and the average duration of the program will be eight months. The
program components include group treatment and individual treatment sessions. The
program will be in effect for a 24-month period and the department will conduct an
ongoing evaluation to determine the effectiveness of the CBI-SO pilot program.
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 11 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
Gang Prevention: The department’s step-down program (SDP) provides inmates placed
in the SHU due to STG validation or documented STG behaviors, a program that
includes increased incentives for positive behavior, including discontinuing participation
in STG activities, with the ultimate goal of release from the SHU. The SDP has been
implemented at each SHU institution: California Correctional Institution (CCI),
California State Prison, Sacramento (SAC), California State Prison, Corcoran (COR), and
Pelican Bay State Prison (PBSP). The department reports that the SDP is currently not
being implemented in female institutions because no female STG members or affiliates
are in the SHU based on an STG validation.
The program components include pro-social videos, voluntary education program,
self-journaling workbooks, interactive journaling workbooks, “thinking for change,” and
conflict resolution. The journaling workbooks cover violence prevention, criminal
lifestyle, rational thinking, living with others, substance abuse, and social values.
Community Programs for Parolees
Similar to the in-prison rehabilitation program goals, the department’s goal as stated in
the Blueprint is to build program capacity to accommodate 70 percent of parolees who
have a need for substance abuse treatment, employment services, or education within
their first year of being released from prison. CDCR identified June 30, 2015, as its
projected completion date.8 The most recent Blueprint report in September 2015
identified that this goal was achieved, as the department identified that 72 percent of
parolees participated in a program that addressed at least one, but not all, of the possible
categories.
According to the department, the community and reentry programs expanded
pre-employment services to parolees via the increase in day reporting centers (DRCs)
across the State, thereby increasing employment and job development services. There are
currently 23 DRCs and community-based coalitions operating statewide. Along with day
reporting centers, the department has also increased the number of computer literacy
learning centers from 21 in 2012 to 25 centers currently, helping to improve literacy
skills and focusing on training skills, life skills, and employment competencies. The
department explained that its decrease in annual capacity for post-release substance abuse
treatment was due to a decline in the number of Board of Parole Hearings referrals to the
community portion of the in-custody drug treatment program.
Additionally, the department is in the process of developing a tracking mechanism to
identify the percentages of first-year parolees who have participated in community-based
programming based on their assessed needs. In the interim, the department provided data
identifying the number of parolees released in the past year, who during December 2015,
were in the target population and participated in a rehabilitative program consistent with
8 CDCR’s revised Strategic Plan identifies June 30, 2015, as the date to reach the 70 percent rehabilitation
goal for parolees. The Strategic Plan further defines the target population as “70 percent of parolees
identified with moderate-to-high risks [CSRA] and needs [COMPAS] will participate during their first year
on parole in appropriate and effective community programming to meet their criminogenic needs.”
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 12 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
their employment, education, or substance abuse needs. This data can be used to track the
department’s progress in continuing to meet its goal as stated in the Blueprint. The table
below represents data provided by CDCR to show how the department identified its
target parolee population.
Total Number of Offenders Paroled or Discharged with a
High/Moderate CSRA Score during December 2015
Parolees—Type of Criminogenic Risk and Need Offenders Released
Parolees released with a moderate-to-high CSRA Score 1,294

928
Re-entry COMPAS
And Parolees released with moderate-to-high CSRA Score and at
839
least 1 medium-to-high COMPAS Re-entry Need
Similar to how it calculates its target population for inmates, the department uses the
results of parolees who have shown a moderate-to-high risk to reoffend (1,294) according
to the California Static Risk Assessment (CSRA), and at least one medium-to-high need,
as identified by the Correctional Offender Management Profiling for Alternative
Sanctions (COMPAS) Reentry assessment tool. In the table above, there were 89 parolees
(928 minus 839) who did not have at least one medium-to-high COMPAS reentry need.
Thus, the target population for parolees during December 2015 was 839.
The table on the next page provided by CDCR identifies parolees who were released in
the past year, and whether they participated in a rehabilitative program consistent with
their employment, education, or substance abuse needs. The department calculated that
74 percent of parolees had participated in programs that addressed at least one, but not
all, of the categories, above its goal of accommodating 70 percent of parolees.
Additionally, the department indicates that 81 percent of parolees participated in a
rehabilitative program, which may not have been for an assessed need.
However, as stated earlier regarding in-prison programs, whether the inmate attended
only one day of a session or completed an entire program, the department counts that
attendance as participation. The department does not currently have a tracking
mechanism in place to determine the type or number of sessions in which a parolee has
participated. Additionally, the counting rule scores all programming towards addressing
offender needs. The OIG again recommends that the department determine a more
meaningful measure of participation, such as a reasonable program completion
percentage or an average number of days in a program, to count as successfully
addressing a parolee’s needs.

GANG MANAGEMENT
The Blueprint identified several measures recommended as a result of a 2007 study
performed by the California State University, Sacramento entitled Security Threat Group
Identification and Management. The Blueprint stated the department could now begin a
careful implementation of the recommendations, including offering graduated housing, a
step-down program for inmates, support and education for disengaging from gangs, a
weighted point system for gang validation, specific use of segregated housing, and social
value programs in preparation for the inmates’ return to the community.
Security Threat Group—Current Status
On January 26, 2016, the U.S. District Court granted final approval of the settlement
agreement for Todd Ashker, et al., v. Governor of the State of California, et al., Northern
District of California, Case No. 4:09-cv-05796-CW (Ashker v. Brown). The agreement
involves changes to policies and practices for placing, housing, managing, and retaining
inmates who have been validated as prison gang members and associates, along with
conditions in each of its four security housing unit (SHU) institutions. Some of the key
changes include revising its gang management and SHU policies and practices to include:
• An inmate who has committed a SHU-eligible rule violation with a security threat
group (STG) nexus within the last 24 months (previously 48 months) shall be placed
into the Step Down Program (SDP) based on the date of the most recent STG-related
rule violation. If an inmate has not been found guilty of a SHU-eligible rule violation
with an STG nexus in the last 24 months, the inmate shall be released from the SHU
to an appropriate general population (GP) institution consistent with his case factors.
The table on the next page shows the time frames of documented STG behavior that
CDCR’s Departmental Review Board (DRB) considers when determining the
appropriate SDP placement. Also, step 5 is eliminated; inmates assigned to step 5 in
general population housing will remain in GP and will no longer be considered
participants in the SDP.
• The creation of a Restricted Custody General Population (RCGP) pilot program. The
RCGP will consist of a high security general population level IV 180-design facility.
Inmates refusing to complete the SDP components, or those who meet the eligibility
for RCGP placement will be transferred to an RCGP facility. The RCGP housing
beds became available at Pelican Bay State Prison (PBSP) in January 2016.
• Any inmate housed in a SHU program for ten or more continuous years who has
committed a SHU-eligible offense with a link to an STG within the preceding 24
months, will be transferred to the RCGP for completion of Step Down Program
requirements, rather than remain in a SHU.

• Inmates housed for more than five continuous years at the PBSP SHU are to be
transferred to another SHU facility. Inmates requiring SHU placement beyond this
time frame will be transferred to another SHU facility, or to a 180-design facility at
PBSP. The policy allows for the return of an inmate who was previously housed in
the PBSP SHU for five continuous years if approved by the DRB and five years have
passed since the inmate’s transfer from the PBSP SHU.
• The CDCR shall review the cases of all validated inmates currently in the SHU within
12 months of October 14, 2015, the court’s preliminary approval of this agreement.
This includes inmates who had an indeterminate SHU term assessed under prior
regulations, who are currently assigned to steps one through four, or who were
assigned to step 5, but were retained in a SHU.9
Security Threat Group—Gang Management Program
To combat gangs, the department has historically identified gangs with the greatest
propensity for violence and has separated the offenders from the general inmate
population by placement into a SHU.10 The department’s past policy for identifying
prison-based gang members and associates and isolating them from the general
population has been replaced with a model that identifies and manages STGs utilizing a
9 The department uses indeterminate SHU terms for non-STG disciplinary matters. The Ashker v. Brown
settlement agreement does not change this practice.
10 Title 15, California Code of Regulations, Section 3341.5(c), provides for “…an inmate whose conduct
endangers the safety of others or the security of the institution…” to be housed in a security housing unit
(SHU). Inmates may be placed in a SHU for either a determinate or an indeterminate term. Inmates
sentenced to determinate terms in SHUs are those who have been found guilty through a formal
disciplinary process of having committed one or more specified serious offenses ranging from murder to
threatening institution security. Title 15, California Code of Regulations, Section 3341.5(c)(2)(A)(2), in
contrast, specifies an indeterminate SHU term for validated prison gang members and associates, who are
deemed “a severe threat to the safety of others or the security of the institution.”

behavior-based SDP for validated affiliates.11,12 This policy allows gang affiliates an
opportunity to transition from a restricted program back to the general population by
demonstrating a willingness and commitment to discontinue gang activity during their
incarceration. The policy addresses validated affiliates with indeterminate SHU terms. It
does not address inmates with determinate SHU terms (inmates in SHUs for
non-gang-related behavior).
The department conducts case-by-case reviews for currently validated affiliates housed in
SHUs. As part of the review, the DRB determines an inmate’s appropriate placement or
retention within the SHU, placement within the SDP, or release to a general population
facility. The department also conducts case-by-case reviews of validated inmates housed
within administrative segregation units (ASU) who are endorsed for transfer to SHU
facilities. The department noted the case-by-case reviews were to be provided to all
existing validated STG members and associates. These reviews provide an opportunity
for potential release to general population or further retention in the SHU within one of
the four programming steps of the SDP. The table below summarizes the outcomes of the
case-by-case reviews since the initial STG pilot began in October 2012. The SHU
population at the four male institutions has decreased from 3,843 inmates, as of October
18, 2012 (start of its SDP pilot program) to 2,152 inmates, as of January 31, 2016. Of
note, 77 percent of inmates who received a case-by-case review were recommended for
release from SHU to general population housing due to a lack of a recent SHU-eligible
rule violation with an STG nexus.13 The department is to complete its remaining case
reviews for 691 validated inmates currently housed in SHU by October 14, 2016.

years prior to the case-by-case review before recommending release to general population; since the Ashker
settlement, the time period was reduced to the past two years.

in the SHU. These inmates are housed in ASU at various institutions throughout the State
and typically have their case-by-case reviews conducted once they arrive in the SHU. As
shown in the right-hand column on the table above, documents from the department
through December 8, 2015, display that the Institution Classification Committee (ICC)
reviewed a total of 248 cases; this figure remained constant since the last OIG report
issued in September 2015. As of March 7, 2016, the department identified 132 inmates
housed in ASU that are to receive case-by-case reviews over the next few months.
Additionally, in September 2015, the department began its implementation of Ashker v.
Brown. As shown in the table on the next page, the department has completed 954 case-
by-case reviews for SHU inmates through February 23, 2016. This figure includes case
reviews conducted by ICC (918) and those conducted by the DRB (36). Out of the 918
reviews conducted by ICC, 146 inmates (16 percent) were referred for further review by
Departmental Review Board, involving special circumstances or unique case factors.

Security Threat Group—Status Report of SDP Inmates
(Steps 1 through 4)
The OIG’s recent monitoring of the department’s gang management policy described
below was prior to the court granting final approval on January 26, 2016, and occurred
while the department was implementing changes based on Ashker v. Brown.
The gang management policy requires that offenders in steps 1 through 4 participate in
programming or journaling before progressing to the next step. Inmates placed in steps 1
and 2 are to have program assessments initiated, such as the Test of Adult Basic
Education (TABE) and Correctional Offender Management Profiling for Alternative
Sanctions (COMPAS) assessments. Inmates placed in step 3 can participate in
self-directed journals intended to develop a system of values and strategies leading to
responsible thinking and behavior. Step 4 inmates may have programming that includes
education, violence prevention programs, and gang diversion programs. Previously, if an
inmate refuses to participate in the journaling or programming, the inmate was to return
to a previous step or regress further; however, due to Ashker v. Brown, the inmate will
now be transferred to an RCGP facility.
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 19 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
The OIG’s fieldwork conducted in December 2015 through January 2016, reviewed the
current status of 79 inmates14 who were assigned to the SDP (steps 1 through 4) for at
least 12 months to identify the result of the ICC review.15 Due to Ashker v. Brown, most
of the inmates reviewed underwent a recent special STG case-by-case review conducted
by an ICC. ICC reviewed all case factors for consideration of releasing inmates from
SHU to placement in GP housing, or RCGP under a modified SDP, to include possible
retention in a SHU. As shown below, the OIG found that 61 of the 79 inmates
(77 percent) were released to GP, 11 inmates (14 percent) transitioned to the next step, 5
inmates (6 percent) were retained in their current step, and 2 inmates (3 percent) were
removed from the SDP who were undergoing the debriefing process. The OIG found that
the majority of inmates who were not released to GP had not yet received an ICC review
(or were no longer in the SDP) since Ashker v. Brown.

Security Threat Group—Status Report of SDP Facilitators
The department’s SDP provides inmates with increased incentives to promote positive
behavior and discontinue participation in STG activities, with the ultimate goal of release
from the SHU. As a result of Ashker v. Brown, a substantial decrease of SDP inmates has
occurred, and those who remain in the SDP have been mostly unwilling to participate in
programming. The latter group refuses to program since inmates without a SHU-eligible
14 Based on the review of department data, as of November 1, 2015, the OIG identified 79 SDP inmates
assigned to steps 1 through 4 who had undergone an ICC review.
15 As part of its gang management policy, the department conducts ICC program reviews to monitor the
progress and behavior of inmates within the SDP. Each step, prior to Ashker v. Brown, was designed to be
completed in 12 months but may have been accelerated at the 180-day review. Since Ashker v. Brown, the
ICC found most inmates eligible for referral and placement in less restrictive housing on a GP facility.

rule violation in the past 24 months, were to be released from SHU to GP, regardless of
whether they program or not.
The SDP facilitators16 strongly believe the various programming components, especially
the cognitive behavioral course in a group setting, should be mandatory for SDP inmates
prior to their release to a GP setting. The facilitators noted the course improves social
skills and provides an opportunity for inmates to socialize with other racial and ethnic
groups. The OIG staff attended an SDP training session at California State Prison,
Corcoran titled “Changing lives through literature-Unlocking Power” (UP), also known
as the ‘SHU book club.’ There were four SDP inmates participating in the program. The
OIG learned that the other three SHU institutions are attempting to start similar programs.
It was observed that SDP inmates were engaged not only as a book discussion group, but
were provided learning opportunities to change criminogenic thinking and build self-
awareness.
The OIG will continue to monitor and report on the revised SDP and consult with the
department in these areas with a shared interest in achieving the goals set out in the

COMPREHENSIVE HOUSING PLAN
The department updated its comprehensive housing plan and incorporated the
components identified in the Blueprint. Those components include changes to the inmate
classification score system, creating anticipated changes in housing and population
density levels, construction, renovations, conversions, activations, closures, and changes
to contract beds and the fire camp population. The results of the comprehensive housing
plan are summarized in Appendix B of the department’s Blueprint at the institution level.
Institution Housing Plans
The institution housing plans identify design and staff capacity as well as the custody
level and program assignment for each housing unit at each institution. Since neither the
housing plans nor the narrative identifies an implementation date, for the purposes of
review the OIG assumed that the institution housing plans became effective when the
Blueprint was approved, which was when the 2012–13 Budget Act was signed.
The Blueprint does not provide the detail regarding the housing plans prior to the
Blueprint changes. Therefore, the OIG does not have a starting point for the level of
detail the new housing plans provide. This is critical because although the OIG is
attempting to monitor monthly activation and deactivation plans, some of the plans the
OIG has reviewed call for an activation of a housing unit to the custody level and
program assignment consistent with what is already in the housing plan in the Blueprint.
Because of a lack of “before-Blueprint” data, the OIG relied primarily on the institutions’
shift count reports and departmental population data to determine whether housing units
were being used in accordance with the Blueprint housing plans. The OIG did not attempt
to reconcile the housing plans to the program assignment level but rather to the custody
levels.
The OIG obtained “positive shift count” reports at each institution.17 Although those
reports do not identify custody level and program assignment, they do provide inmate
population counts for each housing unit. The OIG was then able to determine whether
inmates are being housed at each housing unit within a level reasonably consistent with
the level identified in the housing plan. The OIG found that the inmate housing is
consistent with the housing plan in most instances. In fact, of the 934 housing units
identified in the Blueprint, the OIG found 891 housing units (95 percent) to be
operational as of February 29, 2016.
17 Positive shift count reports are reports generated at each prison at standard intervals throughout each day
and accessible via the Strategic Offender Management System (SOMS). The reports contain data of the
number of inmate counts in each housing unit within each facility or major yard and at each prison. The
reports also identify the number of inmates either off grounds or at special areas of the prison, such as
being out to court, out to a medical appointment, at education, or in the administration building.
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 22 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
The OIG used population data to compare the institutions’ current population by security
level to the security level capacities identified in the Blueprint housing plans. The data also
contained detailed information regarding program types. This approach provided validation
that the housing of inmates is consistent with the Blueprint’s housing plans as it relates to
inmate population levels by both housing levels and program types.
The results of the OIG’s fieldwork review as of February 29, 2016, are displayed in
Appendix B of this report as a statewide summary of the housing capacities identified in the
Blueprint for each institution and a statewide summary for the housing units.
Housing Plan—Miscellaneous Benchmarks
There were several specific components identified in the Blueprint related to the
comprehensive housing plan. The following table shows those components and includes
their status resulting from the OIG’s review.

its use of contract or leased beds or close the California
Rehabilitation Center and maintain compliance with the court-
ordered population cap. Also, the Budget includes a one-time
augmentation of $6 million to address critical repairs and deferred
maintenance projects to continue its use.

of fire camp closures was identified. fire camps and reduce its inmate population. There were 3,542
inmates housed in fire camps as of February 29, 2016.
New Construction: Two specific construction projects were underway at the department
when the Blueprint was released: the California Health Care Facility (CHCF) in Stockton
was to be activated by summer 2013, and an annex to the CHCF was being constructed.
The annex will be built over the former DeWitt Nelson Youth Correctional Facility
(DeWitt) and was planned to be completed by June 2014.
The OIG’s review found each of these construction projects were completed on schedule:
August 2013 for CHCF and March 2014 for the CHCF annex. The first inmate was
received at the CHCF annex on April 1, 2014. As of February 24, 2016, CHCF had 2,192
out of its 2,951 design capacity (74 percent of design capacity).
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 23 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
Health Care Facility Improvement Program (HCFIP): The Blueprint noted the health care
facility improvement program was to perform facility assessments and provide upgrades
in existing prisons to ensure adequate clinical and support service spaces were available
to meet the treatment needs of inmate-patients. These improvements were planned to
address the facility needs of outpatient medical care throughout the entire adult prison
system. The HCFIP planned to first target the intermediate care prisons where inmates
require more intensive medical care rather than general outpatient medical care.
Improvements were to focus on addressing infection control issues, such as hand-washing
facilities and the separation of clean and soiled supplies. They were also to provide the
physical separation necessary to provide inmate-patient privacy with nursing and
physician staff, as mandated by the federal Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act. Also, the Statewide Medication Distribution Project is part of the
HCFIP and is to remedy deficiencies in medication distribution at State prison facilities.
Based on the assessments, the department determined that HCFIP projects were needed at
31 institutions, excluding California Health Care Facility, San Quentin State Prison, and
California Rehabilitation Center. Each of the specific HCFIP projects has been
established by the State Public Works Board and is in varying stages of design, with the
estimated construction completion dates to occur in late-2016 and 2017. As noted by the
department in its recent update to the Blueprint, 23 prisons are in construction, 3 are in
the bidding phase, and 5 are in the design phase.
Infill Construction: The Blueprint identified some infill construction projects due to a
higher need for level II housing. The projects identified include the DeWitt Nelson
Correctional Annex and the construction of three new facilities to house approximately
800 inmates, each to be built at existing facilities. The status of the DeWitt Nelson
Correctional Annex is discussed above. The following provides the status of the three
other infill projects.
Senate Bill 1022 (Chapter 42, Statutes of 2012) authorized the design and construction of
three level II facilities adjacent to one or more of the following seven facilities: California
Institution for Men; California Medical Facility; California State Prison, Sacramento;
California State Prison, Solano; Folsom State Prison; Mule Creek State Prison; and the
Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility.
The Public Works Board took action on September 11, 2012, to authorize the 800-bed
infill projects, with two slated to be built at Mule Creek State Prison (MCSP) for 1,600
beds, and one at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility (RJD) for 800 beds.
However, in December 2012, the Notice of Preparation of an Environmental Impact
Report (EIR) regarding the proposed projects included proposals for evaluations at all
seven institutions. Scoping hearings took place in January 2013, and formal written
comments were due in early February 2013. The department submitted the EIR document
for public comment, and that process was completed. A Notice of Determination was
filed with the State Clearinghouse in November 2013 identifying the department’s
intention to construct two projects at MCSP and one at RJD. The design build contract
for MCSP was executed in March 2014, and the contract for RJD was executed in April
Seventh Report on CDCR’s Progress Implementing the Blueprint 24 of 71
Office of the Inspector General State of California
2014. The department’s activation schedule for MCSP shows that 1,320 Level II
Sensitive Needs Yard (SNY) and 264 Level II Enhanced Outpatient Program (EOP) beds
will be available for inmates who began transferring in February 2016. Construction
activities have commenced at RJD, and inmate occupancy is anticipated for August 2016.
Contract Capacity: The Blueprint articulates the department’s plan to eliminate
out-of-State contracted inmate beds by June 30, 2016. The plan is also to reestablish up to
1,225 additional community correctional facility (CCF) beds once the out-of-State
inmates return. The Blueprint projected an out-of-State inmate population drop from
9,588 inmates on June 27, 2012, to 4,596 inmates by December 27, 2013. Population
reports show this benchmark was not met, as over 8,800 inmates were housed outside
California during this benchmark date. In the recent update to the Blueprint, the
department planned to reduce the out-of-State inmate population to 4,900 inmates by the
end of fiscal year 2015-16. As of February 29, 2016, the department is on-track with this
reduction as 5,049 inmates are housed out-of-State in Arizona and Mississippi.
In September 2013, the passage of Senate Bill 105 authorized the department to increase
its level of contracted beds both in and out-of-State. The bill provides an immediate
measure to avoid early release of inmates and allow the State to comply with the
three-judge court order. The bill authorized the activation of California City Correctional
Facility (CAC), a private prison located in Kern County. CAC is the first leased facility
to be operated by the department. The facility is to house 2,400 level II general
population inmates in celled housing. Inmates began transferring to CAC on
December 16, 2013, and as of February 24, 2016, a total of 1,854 inmates were housed
there, which is a decrease of 373 from the last OIG report, published in September 2015.
According to the department, this decrease at CAC can be attributed, in part, to
Proposition 47, which allows inmates to petition the court for resentencing of certain drug
possession felonies to misdemeanors. CAC has recently been averaging paroling of
approximately 50 inmates per month. CAC also receives its new level II inmates
primarily from out-of-State, thus along with the CCFs, it is dependent on those inmates
returning to California to backfill its population.
Housing inmates in public modified community correctional facilities (MCCFs) within
California, as shown in the table on the next page, is to assist with the reduction of
in-State prison overcrowding. In December 2013, the department requested activation of
578 and 640 contracted beds with the Cities of Delano and Shafter, respectively. In
March 2014, the department activated the Taft facility with plans for up to 600 inmates.
The department also activated and increased capacity at other private MCCFs, including
Central Valley, Desert View, and Golden State. As of January 31, 2016, the department
had a total of 3,487 inmates housed in its public and private MCCFs. This was a total
decrease of 121 inmates from the OIG’s last report, issued in September 2015, when
3,608 inmates were housed in MCCFs.

Population Density Levels: Appendix F of the Blueprint identified some projections
regarding male inmate population density levels. Other than the projections themselves,
there are no goals or benchmarks to monitor. Based on inmate population as of January
31, 2016, the table below compares the actual density (overcrowding) rates to the goals
for six security level bed types. Each of the rates fall within the established goal, with the
exception of level IV beds, which significantly exceed the goal at a 177 percent
overcrowding rate exceeding the Blueprint goal of 150 percent. Notably, the
department’s reduction of its inmate population in level II beds has decreased with the
activation of CAC and use of public and private MCCFs, and infill projects at MCSP and
RJD will continue to assist in reducing the overcrowding rate.

Housing Plan—Global Benchmarks
The Blueprint noted the department was under federal court order to reduce overall
prison overcrowding to 137.5 percent of design-bed capacity. As of February 29, 2016,
department figures show an in-State prison population of 112,814 housed in the State’s
34 adult institutions with a design bed capacity of 83,49919, which amounts to
135.1 percent of design bed capacity. This figure is below the 137.5 percent
court-ordered reduction required by February 28, 2016.
18
The figures for the MCCFs do not include the other in-state contract beds, which include the Female
Community Reentry Facility (260-bed facility), Female Rehabilitative Community Correctional Center
(75-bed facility), and Community Prisoner Mother Program (24-bed facility).
19 The design bed capacity of 83,499 is inclusive of 792 beds from its activation of Mule Creek State
Prison, level II facility, which began transferring inmates into MCSP the week of February 22, 2016. The
parties in the three-judge court are in the court-ordered meet-and-confer process on how much additional
capacity should be counted.

Office of the Inspector General State of California
CONCLUSION
The department has met its Blueprint goals in establishing a system of standardized
staffing and modifying its inmate classification score system to shift over 17,000 inmates
to lower security levels who now have more rehabilitation programming opportunities.
The department is also adhering to the comprehensive housing plan and construction
goals set in the Blueprint, though the OIG will continue to monitor a few large-scale
construction projects remaining to be completed. Recently, the department met its
benchmark to reduce prison overcrowding to 137.5 percent by February 28, 2016. The
department has been addressing its in-State prison overcrowding with the activation of
California City Correctional Facility and increased capacity at public and private
modified community correctional facilities as well as additional Level II housing at Mule
Creek State Prison and upcoming activation at Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility.
The department has shown progress in meeting some of its rehabilitative benchmarks and
implementing changes as a result of the Ashker settlement agreement for its modified
security threat group step-down program policy. Although the department implemented
all rehabilitation programs at its reentry hubs, its continuing challenge remains increasing
the percentage of inmates served in rehabilitative programs to 70 percent of its target
population and establishing a meaningful measurement standard. The department was
unable to meet this goal as 56 percent were served by June 30, 2015. During the first two
quarters of fiscal year 2015-16, inmates served have decreased slightly to 53 percent.
This figure represents the department’s target population that is having at least one
identified need (or all its rehabilitative needs) met. The department’s Division of
Rehabilitative Programs (DRP) is currently working with the OIG to determine a more
meaningful measure of participation, such as a reasonable program completion
percentage or an average number of days in a program, to count as successfully
addressing an offender’s needs. The DRP has established a workgroup to analyze data
and develop proposals for a possible counting rule change. It should be noted that the
DRP has had some recent retention challenges with losses in its senior leadership,
including the director and two deputy directors. The director position has not been filled,
but an interim director is currently in place.
The OIG found that 88 percent of the academic education programs are operational,
which represents a 1 percent decrease from the last report. The OIG found that 83 percent
of the career technical education programs are operational, which represents a 7 percent
increase from the last report. The primary reason academic and CTE courses were not
operational are due to teacher vacancies (long-term sick, workers’ compensation,
retirement, recruitment, long-term disability, etc.). The OIG also found that 99 percent of
the substance abuse treatment slots at its reentry hubs are filled, which represents an
11 percent increase from the last report. A comparable increase was found in the
cognitive behavioral treatment slots, which increased by 10 percent to 94 percent
compliance from the last report. The department has added substance abuse programs as
part of its Long Term Offender Program (LTOP) at 11 non-reentry-hub institutions and
cognitive behavioral treatment and pre-employment transitions programs at its 3 LTOP

institutions. While full utilization is not yet at 100 percent, capacity in all areas continues
to grow.
Also, regarding enhanced programming facilities (EPFs), the OIG found that placement
into an EPF program is not consistently behavior based, especially for new arrivals at
level IV facilities, due to a lack of bed space and program failures not being referred for
transfer and removed from the EPF. Many inmates do not meet the criteria for EPF
placement, but without adequate bed space, department staff is compelled to utilize EPFs
for temporary housing despite the requirement that EPFs only be used for inmates with a
willingness to meet programming expectations. Since the intent of the EPFs is to
incentivize and reinforce positive life choices, allowing other non-eligible inmates
defeats the purpose of the program. Also, continuing to allow program failures to remain
on the EPF after committing rules violations will jeopardize the sustainability of EPFs,
especially with the recent change due to Ashker v. Brown, which no longer excludes
inmates who served administrative SHU terms from EPFs. The department has pledged
to examine this issue with input from the affected facilities and find solutions to the
housing problem that will not adversely impact the success of the EPF program.
The department has conducted 2,493 case-by-case reviews since its gang management
pilot began in October 2012. The department has significantly increased its case-by-case
reviews by 1,016 since Ashker v. Brown, as the department had completed 1,477 reviews
(through August 21, 2015) in the OIG’s prior report. This increase was primarily due to
special STG case-by-case reviews conducted by ICC’s chaired by a Warden. Of note, 77
percent of inmates reviewed were recommended for release from SHU to general
population housing due to a lack of a recent SHU-eligible rule violation with an STG
nexus. The department is planning to complete all remaining case-by-case reviews for
691 validated inmates housed in SHU by October 14, 2016. The OIG will continue to
consult with the department in these areas with a shared interest in achieving the goals set
out in the Blueprint and Ashker v. Brown settlement agreement and provide a more
detailed report on step-down programming in our next report.

The following pages display the information the OIG summarized after assessing whether
the department has implemented the rehabilitation programs scheduled to be underway in
fiscal year 2015–16 as identified by the department. The OIG performed the fieldwork to
assess the operational status of each program at each institution.
The information displayed in the following page identifies the statewide operational
status of the rehabilitation programs in summary format for each type of program. An
individual page for each prison is provided after the summary page. The first columns
identify the numbers in terms of teacher positions and the numbers in terms of student-
inmates as they were identified by the department. As described earlier, the numbers
were allowed to be changed as long as they met the total departmental numbers. The next
set of columns displays the results of the OIG fieldwork identifying the number of
programs that were actually fully operational when the fieldwork was performed. The last
set of columns identifies the differences between the number of courses that were
supposed to be operational (and related available inmates served) and the number of
courses that the OIG actually found to be operational during the site visits.
The fieldwork performed in this review was conducted from December 2015 through
January 2016. Therefore, the numbers may have changed since the time of the report.

Appendix C—Housing Plans
The following pages display the information the OIG summarized after reviewing data
and documents to assess whether the department is housing inmates consistent with the
housing plans identified in the Blueprint.
The first page of Appendix C displays data in summary format by institution totals and then
unit total for each institution. The OIG compared the individual Blueprint housing plans for
each institution at the unit level against institution count reports from CDCR’s weekly
population report as of February 29, 2016. These reports allowed a snapshot view of the
inmate population for each housing unit in operation. The summary pages compare the
design capacity against the actual inmate population. Several institutions had vacant housing
units at the time of the review due to maintenance or conversion. The department plans to
have inmates housed in some of those units once maintenance and conversion are completed.
In summary, the OIG’s assessment found that the actual housing of inmates is substantially
consistent with the housing plans identified in the Blueprint.
