Prohibited Behaviors and Refocus Options

(1)

Prohibited Offender Behaviors and appropriate Refocus Options are listed on an Offender Behavior Refocus Option Matrix (Exhibit 1). The Refocus Options imposed must reflect the severity of the prohibited behavior.

(a)

Levels Zero, One, and Two Offender Prohibited Behaviors listed on the Offender Behavior Refocus Option Matrix are major behavior violations.

(b)

Level Three Offender Prohibited Behaviors listed on the Offender Behavior Refocus Option Matrix are minor behavior violations.

(2)

Aiding another offender to commit, attempting to commit, or making plans to commit any prohibited offender behavior is considered the same as engaging in the behavior itself for purposes of imposing Refocus Options.

(3)

Any deviation from the Refocus Options for major behavior violations listed on the Offender Behavior Refocus Option Matrix must be reasonable, authorized by the superintendent, camp director, or designee, and documented in writing.

(4)

The Offender Behavior Refocus Option Matrix must be given to each offender upon initial admission into a facility. When a literacy or language barrier prevents an offender from understanding the written document, a staff member or interpreter will assist the offender in understanding.

(5)

A current Offender Behavior Refocus Option Matrix must be posted in each OYA facility living unit.
