Establishes a transition program for eligible inmates in Arizona, providing up to 180 days of community-based services.
HB2440 amends Arizona law to establish a transition program for eligible inmates, offering them up to 180 days of community-based services. The Arizona Department of Corrections will administer the program and contract with private or nonprofit entities to provide these services. Inmates may receive an additional 90-day extension if they need further treatment, if their risk of recidivism is evaluated using a validated instrument, and if their primary criminogenic factors are identified. The bill also defines "recidivism" as reincarceration for any reason.
