Cases responded to and closed during the reporting period July - December 2024 were 409.
During this reporting period, the coach has been in regular contact with Maine DOC. As mentioned in previous reports, the agency has had turnover in the PREA Coordinator position in the last year. The agency appointed an interim PC, but they did not want to make changes to the grant without the permanent PC being in place. A permanent PC was soon appointed and the interim and the new PC seemed poised to quickly move the grant along. For example, they got a translation of the PRC intake video done for those who speak Somali.
During this reporting period, TDCJ continued to lack communication from the TDCJ finance department, alerting the person managing the grant about how much remains to be spent in each grant. The grant manager is poised to use the funds but does not want to over or under-spend. The coach is going to reach out to TDCJ. The other struggle has to do with the organization around PREA. The Safe Prisons Program is housed within TDCJ. However, the PREA Coordinator is also the PREA Ombudsman and is not employed by TDCJ, but by the Texas Board of Criminal Justice.
During this reporting period, the coach has kept in regular contact with the site during the reporting period. The majority of the work together has been around the PADOC's upcoming webinar to explain how they went about revising their risk screening tool and the system created to generate reports on incidents. The coach has encouraged the site to take the lead on presenting and the coach will provide support and will present only to frame the topic and to ask questions.PADOC has spent the fall conducting audits of one-third of their sites.
