ofCorrection

We currently have over 1800

Therapeutic Community beds.

Working with Courts and other programs inside the facilities to

help reduce recidivism

Our Therapeutic Communities are a

minimum of 8 months of

intensive treatment that can earn up to

a 6 month credit time cut.

We have two different types of TC:• General Therapeutic

Community: Clients with significant impairment to any substance

• C.L.I.F.F. (Clean Lifestyle Is Freedom Forever): Governor Daniels initiative for clients with significant impairment to methamphetamine.

accountable - Offenders earn privileges and responsibilities

in the community as they progress in their recovery

Modified Therapeutic Community Model

used

All evidence based programming

Stanton Samenow’s “Commitment to change;

Overcoming errors in thinking” series is utilized

Following the intensive phase, they will participate in

relapse prevention programming for the

Therapeutic Community Overview

To create and foster a working relationship between the IDOC’s

Therapeutic Communities and the

Indiana Judicial System.

Judges can sentence chemically addicted

offenders and document that they

will ”Consider a sentence

modification” should the offender successfully complete a therapeutic community.

The offender can receive treatment and

be returned to the community through existing community programs such as:

Re-Entry Courts

CTP Program

Community Work Release

Other available Community Services

Purpose

The program will provide the courts

progress reports on the offenders that are

participating in the program.

Informal reports can be requested by the sentencing judge at any point during the

incarceration.

We can provide Judges and Court personnel with our OCMS data base (read access only)

Communication with the Court

The judge or an officer of the court can visit

the offender in order to determine progress

If the offender successfully completes

the therapeutic program, the judge will

be notified.

This comprehensive information will be

made available to the court and can assist in

decisions when considering sentence

modifications

Communication with the Court

The Indiana Judicial System and the Department of Correction can work together to support the offenders successful reentry to the community

We will target a decrease in recidivism rates and conduct a three year statistical study.

Recidivism Rates for these offenders will be tracked separately as well as in the aggregate.

What are the Advantages

Monitoring recidivism will be vital to determine

the overall effectiveness of

“Purposeful Incarceration”

Recidivism data on offenders participating in this program will be generated separately as well as included in the respective TC’s overall recidivism

rates

These offenders will be identified so

that they can be tracked separately

from other Therapeutic Community participants.

We will identify the facility, offenders

name, DOC number, County, Judge, EPRD

and TC start and completion dates and

types (successful, unsuccessful)

Data Collection

Please note in the sentencing order; the Court will consider a sentencing modification if the individual successfully completes a Department of Correction Therapeutic Community.Notify the appropriate Department of Correction staff via email to contain:
