The ADC seeks em- ployees who can handle these important matters in a professional manner. The ADC is an equal opportunity employer provid- ing equal employment opportunities without regard to race, color, sex, religion, national origin, age, or disability status. Preference is given to veterans in compliance with state laws. This policy and prac- tice relates to all phases of employment including, but not limited to, recruiting, hiring, placement, pro- motion, transfer, layoff, recall, termination, rates of pay or other forms of compensation, training, use of all facilities and participation in all department sponsored employee activities and programs. All members of the ADC management staff are fa- miliar with this statement of policy, the philosophy behind it and their responsibility to apply these principles in good faith for meaningful progress in the utilization of minorities and women. 4 Management Board of Corrections (historical) In 1993, the Arkansas General Assembly amended Arkansas Code Annotated §12-27-101 and placed the Department of Correction under the supervi- sion and control of the Board of Correction and Community Punishment, which assumed the pow- ers, functions, and duties formerly held by the Board of Correction (created in 1968) and its pre- decessor, the State Penitentiary Board (created in 1943). In August 2001, legislation went into effect chang- ing the Board’s name to the Board of Corrections. This was necessary when the name of the Depart- ment of Community Punishment changed to the Department of Community Correction. Board of Corrections has seven voting members: Chairman of the Board of Parole Five citizen members One criminal justice faculty member, employed at a four-year Arkansas university The board was impaneled July 1, 1993. Each member serves a term of seven years. 5 Director and Staff The Director of the Arkansas Department of Cor- rection reports directly to the Board of Corrections as the agency's Chief Executive Officer, and is re- sponsible for the agency's philosophy, mission, and operations. The ADC has four divisions, supervised by a depu- ty or assistant director: Institutional/Operational Services; Health and Correctional Programs; Construction and Maintenance; and Adminis- trative Services. In addition, the agency has a staff of professionals who report directly to the di- rector. The Legal Division provides assistance to the de- partment on legal matters and has a critical role in the development of policies and procedures, which must comply with State and Federal laws. The Le- gal Division also represents the Department at Ar- kansas Claims Commission hearings and on em- ployee grievance appeals. The Public Information/ Legislative Liaison/ Constituency Services Administrator is responsi- ble for releasing information, responding to re- quests from the media, drafting and distributing agency publications and assisting members and staff of the Arkansas General Assembly. 6 The Equal Employment Opportunity and Griev- ance Officer monitors compliance with court con- sent decrees and the Uniform Employee Grievance Procedures established in 1985 by gubernatorial proclamation. The officer also assists in develop- ment of affirmative action plans and efforts. Internal Affairs investigates inmate complaints, suspected criminal activities, and serious allega- tions regarding employee conduct. The division works with the Attorney General's Office on em- ployee litigation and the Department’s Legal Divi- sion on Arkansas Claims Commission actions. In- ternal Affairs also coordinates contact with law en- forcement agencies concerning alleged criminal activities of inmates and employees. Disciplinary Hearings allow inmates to respond to disciplinary actions filed against them by depart- ment staff. A disciplinary hearing officer interviews each inmate, reviews documentation, and deter- mines any necessary sanctions. Inmates have the right to appeal decisions to the Warden, then to the Disciplinary Hearing Administrator and then to the Director. Internal Audit performs regular program audits and specific audits requested by administrators. The internal auditor also provides assistance and information to Legislative and other external audi- tors, reviews their findings, and initiates corrective action. 7 Administrative Services The Administrative Services Division provides support services to all operational units of the department while ensuring agency compliance with State and Fed- eral accounting and budgetary procedures. Human Resources assists operational units in all as- pects of personnel-related functions including: recruit- ment, hiring, employee benefits, training, staff devel- opment, and retention of a skilled labor force for the department. Accounting Operations is responsible for accounts payable and telephone services for Pine Bluff Com- plex and Administration Annex East. Accounting Control is responsible for agency fund management activities, administration of Federal grants, maintenance of general and subsidiary ledg- ers, and records of fixed assets. Budget prepares annual and biennial budgets, re- quired financial reports, analysis, and monitors agency expenditures. Procurement procures goods and services for the agency and administers all aspects of its vehicle fleet, and insurance coverage. Warehouse and Food Services division is responsi- ble for procuring, storing, and transporting food for the department. It is also responsible for menu planning and meal preparation that meets the nutritional and health requirements of the inmate population. Institutional/Operational Services Security monitors and evaluates the agency’s security procedures and reviews security related equipment 8 and programs. Regional Jails are operated by the department at Dermott and Brickeys. They house city, county, and state inmates, enabling governmental entities to share construction and operating costs. Boot Camp Program is a military style treatment pro- gram for nonviolent offenders. The boot camp uses discipline, education, and substance abuse treatment to modify criminal behavior and reduce the need for long-term incarceration. An aftercare program is pro- vided to all boot camp graduates. Work Release Programs allow inmates to hold pay- ing jobs in the community while being housed at a cor- rectional facility. The Department of Correction oper- ates work release programs at Benton, Luxora, Pine Bluff, Springdale, Texarkana, Pine Bluff and Wrightsville. Accreditation is a process the department utilizes to develop policies and practices that meet the national standards of the American Correctional Association. Accreditation enhances program development, im- proves the inmate's quality of life, and improves safety within the institutions for the staff and inmates. Inmate Transportation is responsible for transporting and escorting inmates outside department facilities. Inmates are transported for medical appointments, court appearances, and unit transfers. During any in- mate movement, transportation personnel maintain security and protect property. Agriculture Program provides the majority of vegeta- bles, meat, milk, and eggs consumed by the inmate population and generates revenue by selling soy 9 beans, rice, cotton, and other cash crops. The larg- est farm operation is located at the Cummins Unit, where 16,000 acres are devoted to cash crops, veg- etables, hay production, and livestock. More than 5,000 acres at the Wrightsville Unit are used for cat- tle and hay production. The Tucker Unit provides 4,500 acres for rice and soybeans. The East Arkan- sas Regional Unit produces cotton, soybeans, and wheat on 2,500 acres. A vegetable processing plant is located at the Varner Unit. Industry Program offers on-the-job training for in -mates in manufacturing settings and produces goods for public agencies and nonprofit organiza- tions. Operations include digital imaging, janitorial products, garment manufacturing, vinyl products, graphic arts and duplicating, mattress manufactur- ing, vehicle refurbishing, school furniture repair, fur- niture manufacturing and athletic/recreational equip- ment production. Records is responsible for maintaining up-to-date information on inmates. Classification determines inmate placement for vo- cational, work, and facility/barracks assignments by evaluating security requirements, programming needs, and individual characteristics such as, age, offense, criminal history, medical, and psychological conditions. Sex Offender Community Notification Assess- ment (SOCNA) assesses all adults required to reg- ister as sex offenders in Arkansas to determine the breath of community notification to be made by law enforcement to inform those who meet the victim 10 profile of the offender. The staff work closely with all agencies managing sex offenders in Arkansas includ- ing probation, parole, law enforcement, etc. Reduction of Sexual Victimization Program (RSVP) and Sex Offender Female Treatment

  • Arkansas Department of Corrections
    Arkansas Department of Correction Annual Report FY 2015 Arkansas Department Of Correction FY2015FY2015 Director‟s Message: A As Director of the Arkansas Department of Correction, I am pleased to submit the ADC Fiscal Year A 2015 Annual Report, a showcase of different initiatives and agency accomplishments achieved in FY15. For another Fiscal Year, the Arkansas Department of Correction experienced an increase in the nnual Report inmate population. Our jurisdictional count reached over 18,000 inmates. Populations and challenges nnual Report may change from year to year throughout our facilities but our commitment to excellence has not changed. Although an expanding inmate population can present challenges to ADC professionals, the primary goal is to provide the best in correctional services at the lowest possible cost for the citizens of Arkansas. The ADC received „checks‟ symbolic of energy savings and incentives from CenterPoint Energy and Entergy. The checks for energy efficiency incentives total close to $400,000 from all efforts combined and amount to savings of about $2.8 million. Down on the farm, the layer operation came into production at the Cummins Unit. Eggs from one of the three layer houses will be used to feed the entire inmate population, while eggs from the other two layer houses will be sold to county jails or prisons in other states. This agricultural work opportunity is just one of the many programs provided to the inmates to strengthen their work ethic. The Arkansas Department of Correction provides various other treatment programs, work opportunities, education programs and vocational training while providing for public safety and carrying out the mandates of the courts.
