BOP Program Statement 7320.01 § 7

refer inmates for pre-release placement to the appropriate CCM,

who, after reviewing the referral material, shall refer the case

to the most appropriate program -- CCC, Comprehensive Sanctions

Center (CSC), home confinement program, or other community

program.

An inmate may not apply for a particular community program. Once

approved for a program, the inmate must agree to all required

conditions of that program.

a. Referral Packet. Referral packets shall include the

Agreement, Home Confinement and Community Control (Attachment A),

along with all materials required in the Program Statement on

Community Corrections Center (CCC) Utilization and Transfer

Procedure. An inmate who refuses to sign Attachment A may not be

considered for participation in Community Corrections programs.

The referral should indicate the level of services anticipated,

including:

(1) the appropriateness of placement in a home confinement

program;

(2) the inmate's residence and job or good job prospects to

expedite placement on home confinement;

(3) the inmate's need for placement in the more restrictive

component of the CCC; and

(4) the inmate's need for placement in a specialized

program such as substance abuse treatment.

b. CCM Review. Upon receiving each referral packet, the CCM

is to review the referral in light of the programming options

available in the inmate's release destination area.

Occasionally, a referral may indicate no obvious risk to the

community and no need for CCC services (for example, a supportive

family, a stable residence, confirmed employment (if employable),

and a positive institutional adjustment). In such cases, the CCM

may bypass a CCC and place the inmate directly on home

confinement.

Conversely, higher risk inmates requiring extensive transition

assistance may not be placed on home confinement at all, or

placed only briefly following CCC placement.

c. Inmate Declination. An inmate who declines to participate

in a recommended home confinement program may be transferred to a

more secure facility.
