Facilitated Dialogue Intake Assessment

(1) Intake evaluation: Upon receiving a crime victim’s or survivor’s request to participate in the Facilitated Dialogue Program, the program will evaluate the request and determine whether the Facilitated Dialogue Program is appropriate for the crime victim or survivor and the inmate.
(2) Minimum content of evaluation: When conducting the intake assessment, the Facilitated Dialogue Program through its staff, program facilitators or advisory committee members will, at a minimum, do the following:
(a) Interview the crime victim or survivor to describe the process, determine the nature of the crime, time elapsed since the crime, and other factors that address the past and present impacts of the crime on the crime victim or survivor and why the crime victim or survivor wants to participate in the Facilitated Dialogue Program.
(b) Contact appropriate staff at the institution where the inmate is incarcerated to determine if the inmate is eligible to participate. Program staff or volunteers designated by the Victim Services Program will conduct a preliminary interview with the inmate.
(c) Provide the inmate and the crime victim or survivor with copies of the confidentiality agreement and agreements to participate. Execution of these agreements is necessary before the facilitated dialogue will continue.
(3) The decision whether to grant a crime victim’s or survivor’s request to participate in a facilitated dialogue is at the discretion of the Facilitated Dialogue Program. The Facilitated Dialogue Program decision is final, and not subject to further review by the crime victim or survivor or by the inmate
