BOP Program Statement 5394.01 § 10

Conditions of confinement for inmates in the CTP are designed to provide an environment that

fosters treatment participation while ensuring the safety and security of inmates, the institution,

and the public. Federal Regulations (rules) applicable to pretrial inmates also apply to CTP

inmates. See 28 CFR Part 551. All Bureau policies also apply unless this policy specifies

otherwise. The following exceptions are necessary to further the therapeutic mission of the CTP

and minimize security risks.

a. Environment. To the extent practicable, CTP inmates are kept separate from sentenced

inmates. Limited incidental contact is permissible with appropriate supervision and only when

necessary to afford access to services or programming.

b. Living Quarters. CTP inmates reside in a housing unit separate from sentenced inmates.

c. Clothing. CTP inmates are issued and required to wear institution clothing.

d. Personal Hygiene. CTP inmates receive necessary personal hygiene items and are expected

to comply with 28 CFR part 551, subpart A, and BOP policy on personal grooming.

e. Meals. Meals are provided to CTP inmates in the designated food service area. Meals are

scheduled at different times than for sentenced inmates to maintain separation of the populations.

CTP inmates may have incidental contact with sentenced inmates who are working in Food

Services.

f. Recreation. CTP inmates have the opportunity to engage in various recreational activities. If

recreation areas are shared with sentenced inmates, recreation for CTP inmates is scheduled at

different times to maintain separation.

policy. The Warden has the discretion to restrict incoming publications deemed inappropriate by

staff due to their association with the inmate’s risk to engage in sexually offensive behavior.

These publications may include, but are not limited to:
