Key Takeaways

  • Requires prisons to notify county probation departments 165 days before releasing inmates under supervision.
  • Mandates coordination between prisons and probation to verify and transport inmates to their correct county.
  • Requires sharing of healthcare manager information to integrate medical services with reentry programs.
  • Establishes reimbursement for counties to implement these new supervision requirements.

Summary

Assembly Member Lackey's postrelease supervision reform measure aims to enhance coordination between state corrections officials and county probation departments through expanded notification requirements and information sharing protocols. The legislation modifies existing procedures for individuals transitioning from prison to community supervision.

Under the proposed changes, the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation must notify county probation departments about upcoming releases 165 days in advance, rather than the current 30-day requirement. For cases where release dates are set or modified within the 165-day window, the department must provide notification within 5 business days while maintaining the minimum 30-day notice. The bill also requires the department to share contact information for pre-release, post-release, and enhanced care managers to facilitate integration with California Advancing and Innovating Medi-Cal (CalAIM) services and court-ordered conditions.

The measure establishes new protocols for cases where an individual's current county of residence differs from their previous legal residence. In these situations, corrections officials must work with probation departments to verify the proper jurisdiction and develop coordinated release and transport plans. These additional duties on county probation departments constitute a state-mandated local program, making affected agencies eligible for state reimbursement pending review by the Commission on State Mandates.
