I might ask anybody in this audience to stand up if they feel like they would like to live next to someone thats been released directly from segregation into the street and im pretty sure people are going to stay in their chairs. What we were able to do, in 2012 we released 140 directly into the street. In 2014 we released two so far.

That is first to use Mission Housing to target the need of prisoner was Mental Illness, developmental delays, and those at risk of sexual victimization. Second, to use alternative responses to the disruptions outside of segregation. Third is to increase the training for the prison staff on methods that promote positive social behavior within the bureau of prisons. Jurisdictions employi
