Section 1800.6 - Program structure
(a) General. Shock incarceration is an alternative form of correctional life stressing a highly structured and regimented daily routine which includes extensive discipline and counseling. The program is designed to be a resocialization and learning period, with inmates expected to participate in considerable physical work, exercise and therapeutic programs.
(b) The daily inmate schedule at each shock incarceration facility will include an early morning regimen of physical training, military style drilling, and cleaning of residence areas, a complete workday, daily group meetings, high school equivalency education, substance abuse counseling and organized physical recreation.
(c) Evaluations.
(1) Inmates will be frequently evaluated, in order to obtain an objective assessment of the inmates' progress in the shock incarceration program.
(2) Each inmate will be evaluated daily by his drill instructor and work supervisor. Inmates will be evaluated weekly by their academic/vocational teacher, drug counselor, recreation leader and network officer. The evaluations will be based on indicators which reflect program expectations.
(3) The evaluations will be reviewed at least monthly by supervisors and department head. A monthly review summary sheet will be completed, to be forwarded to the inmate's facility file, to be available to the parole board prior to release. All unsatisfactory determinations will be forwarded to the superintendent's committee for a final recommendation concerning the inmate's continuation in the shock incarceration program.
(4) The inmate's final review must be at least satisfactory in order for the inmate to successfully complete this program.
