Message from the Commissioner

The Honorable Joe Frank Harris Governor of Georgia and The Georgia General Assembly Atlanta, Georgia 30334

Dear Governor Harris and Members of the General Assembly:

I am pleased to submit the annual report for the Georgia Department of Corrections for fiscal year 1990. The document provides an overview of the modem techniques, innovative programs and physical plant additions the Department of Corrections is using as tools to manage the state's evergrowing numbers of inmates in prison and offenders on probation.
In FY 1990, those numbers reached all-time highs. However, also reaching an unprecedented high in FY 1990 was the solid financial support provided by you to help the Department of Corrections lay the groundwork to meet and overcome the alarming challenges it has forecast for this decade.
During a time when almost 5,000 previouslyfunded beds already were under construction at state prisons and probation centers, in the FY90 budget you wisely provided additional funding for construction of another 8,400 new prison and probation center beds. With completion of these historic construction programs within the next two years, the housing capacity of Georgia's adult correctional system will have risen to almost 32,000 beds.
Quite simply, in terms of beds under construction and appropriations for new construction and programs, FY 1990 will be recalled as the most dynamic year ever in the history of the Georgia Department of Corrections.
However, our office of evaluation and statistics predicts that if the incidence of drug-related crime remains at its present level and Georgia's population continues to grow, our state will need some 63,000 prison and probation center beds by the year 2001 if we public servants are to continue to meet our responsibilities to help keep our citizens safe.
At the same time, ever-tightening budget constraints will require us to focus on expanding our wide array of programs that provide Georgia's judges with innovative alternatives to prison for

those offenders who qualify. To your credit, Georgia is the recognized leader in the United States in pioneering and developing innovative, meaningful alternatives to prison that seek to punish and to rehabilitate offenders in a variety of non-prison settings.
I look forward eagerly to working with all of you to meet the tasks ahead with the same cooperative spirit that, in terms of advancing its role as a guardian of the public safety, helped to make FY 1990 one of the most successful ever for the Georgia Department of Corrections.
~mc?u/1 :tby K. Whitworth
Commissioner

Introduction

Simply saying that fiscal year 1990 was a big year for the Georgia Department of Corrections is an understatement. It was a red-banner year-a year that will go down in history as perhaps the most successful ever in terms of new bedspace.
Demonstrating its continuing commitment to keeping the public safe from convicted criminals, the General Assembly in the FY90 general and amended budgets allocated capital outlay funds to add over 8,000 new beds to the system.~ either through new facilities or renovation.
The $206 million allocated provided capital outlay to fund an aggressive building program which included the construction of eight new institutions, and a number of other facilities.
The idea behind the massive building program was part of corrections' and the legislature's plan to relieve as soon as possible-and as much as possible-the system's critical overcrowding conditions and lower the number of offenders being held in county jails across the state.
Officials realized the state was not only faced with handling its current inmate population (over 21,500), but also a criminal population that could exceed 60,000 by the year 2000.

While pressing confidently forward toward increasing the number of prison beds in the system, Commissioner Bobby K. Whitworth stressed the need to place special emphasis on developing innovative techniques in probation for those offenders who could be properly dealt with outside prison walls.
The General Assembly agreed, and in FY90 provided startup funds for two diversion centers, two detention centers and a parole center to house a total of over 500 offenders outside prison.
Because of the boom in prison construction, the number of Georgia Department of Corrections employees also is expected to increase dramatically to an estimated 15,000 in the next five years.
Commissioner Whitworth, in mid-FY90, demonstrated his commitment to the ever-increasing team of professionals, and formed a new departmental division: Human Services. He also coined a new departmental slogan to help guide the corrections department to continued excellence: "L.E.T.S. Work Together".
"L.E.T.S." stands for Leadership, Employees, Teamwork and Stewardship, the four ingredients necessary to lead our department boldly and successfully through the decade and into the 21st century.

Overview

History will show that Fiscal Year 1990 was the year Georgia Department of Corrections employees joined as a team to put in place the plans they had, and laid the foundation for future success and excellence.
The department stepped boldly forward during the year to face perhaps its greatest challenges: managing the phenomenal increase in inmate population and spiraling growth of the agency itself.
The General Assembly understood the urgency of the situation and appropriated funds for a record number 8,500 beds, a significant increase over FY89's appropriation of 3,230 beds.
Over $175 million was appropriated in FY90 to construct eight new medium security prisons in Johnson, Dooly, Mitchell, Calhoun, Wilcox, Pulaski, Tattnall and Macon counties. The new institutions will add almost 7,200 beds to the system.
Also, $14 million was allocated to complete the expansion and renovation of Lee Arrendale Correctional Institution (168 beds) and Milan Women's Center (50 beds).
The Department of Corrections was not only faced with building new facilities and expanding existing ones during FY90, but also with the rising costs of operating its 27 major institutions. The $39.82-per-day cost of keeping an inmate incarcerated during FY89 jumped 9 percent to $44.58 in FY90. Thus, Georgians, at the end of FY90, were paying about $16,000 yearly to house and feed each inmate in the general population.
The need to place more emphasis on the probation arm of corrections and the efforts to make offenders pay for their own supervision continued to gain support during FY90. Funds were appropriated for two new detention centers: Southeast

Women's Probation Detention Center (150 beds) and Gainesville Detention Center (100 beds). Also, two new diversion centers, Gateway (23 beds) and Macon (50 beds) were approved for funding.
Probationers in FY90 paid direct restitution of more than $6.7 million to victims, up more than $1 million from the previous year. They also paid fines totalling $25 million and child support of almost $7 million.
In FY90, the 3,757 probationers who were residents of the department's 18 diversion centers over the year paid almost $1.9 million in room and board.
Community service, a condition of all probation alternatives, continued to be a popular form of punishment for probationers because of its benefits to the community. During FY90, almost 17,500 probationers completed over 1.8 million hours of community service work. Figured at minimum wage ($3.65), the service work was valued at over $7.2 million.
Georgia Correctional Industries continued to help offset the cost of operations. In FY90, the division was able to generate more than $18.5 million in sales, a 15 percent increase over the previous year. Over 1,000 inmates were involved in the production phases, helping not only corrections, but also gaining experience and expertise in a profession.
FY90 was the year the Department of Corrections, now with almost 11,000 employees, made a commitment to excellence for the coming decade. All employees demonstrated that by working together as a team to meet present challenges, and by planning wisely for future expansion, no problem was too great.

Probation

The probation portion of the Department of Corrections plays the role of counterweight for the agency's doctrine of "a balanced approach to corrections." With imprisonment as one option, Georgia's probation program offers jurists a veritable smorgasbord of community-based alternatives. Given the tremendous number of individuals assigned to probation caseloads, varying degrees or levels of supervision have been developed to best govern these nonincarcerated lifestyles:
Basic Probation-With well over 100,000 people assigned to this level, supervision by staff is maintained through several plans:
Maximum-3 contacts per month; two field contacts
High-monthly face-to-face; one field contact Medium-Monthly telephone contact; quarterly face-to-face contact Minimum-Monthly telephone contacts Financial-Child support payments (weekly and monthly) Administrative-Cases that with court approval receive no direct probation supervision Other-Includes new cases pending classification and those who have absconded or who are serving concurrent prison sentences. Community Service-In many cases involving alcohol offenders, petty felony offenses, misdemeanors, et al, special probation supervision has been established where the offender maintains his job during the week and reports to his probation officer on weekends for work in and around the community. For others, this community service work could be performed during the week, still under probation supervision. Any project benefitting the community is screened for appropriateness for this free labor force. House Arrest-Electronic Surveillance-Considered the new kid on the block, this program is being tested in various areas of the state and requires the probationer to wear an electronic bracelet where his activities can be monitored and his where-

abouts verified. Added sophistication to the system allows the probation officer to verify intoxication via telephonic analysis of the subject's breath.
Intensive Probation Supervision (IPS)-In order to add stricter accountability to street probation, this program was developed to provide closely monitored supervision to those probationers deemed most likely to stray from their probation guidelines. By teaming a probation officer and a surveillance officer together and giving each team a caseload of no more than 25, the agency hopes to provide maximum supervision to that element of its caseload where something just short of incarceration is warranted.
Diversion Centers-The mission of community diversion centers is to provide a structured residential facility program for offenders who would otherwise have received prison sentences. This is done by providing housing for probationers during the night, and having him or her report to job sites during the day. Paychecks are turned in each week and room and board, fines, restitution, family support and personal maintenance costs are deducted. Counseling and rehabilitative services are provided at the centers during the evenings.
Special Alternative Incarceration (Shock lncarceration)-Probably nothing in the field of corrections has caught on so dramatically as has this program of military style basic training. Incarcerated within a prison compound, these relatively young (17-25) first-time incarcerants serve 90 days in a program based on instilling the work ethic and appreciation of the rights of others, primarily their victims.
Probation Detention Centers-Modeled along the lines of "shock incarceration" units, these centers provide judges with the option to sentence the habitual traffic offender, the drunk driver and the probation violator to serve 120 days in a minimum security setting rather than a regular prison. The atmosphere is work intensive, with evening hours set aside for drug and alcohol counseling.

Georgia Correctional Industries

As a component of the state's prison system, Georgia Correctional Industries (GCI) is a
public corporation, wholly owned by the state, which manufactures products and supplies utilizing skilled inmate labor. Although state owned, GCI maintains its operation and planned growth patterns from revenues derived from its sales and services. Currently 14 manu-
facturing facilities statewide produce market-
able items generating over $18,500,000 in sales for FY 1990.
By utilizing inmate labor in its production phases, GCI can manufacture numerous items at greater cost savings than can outside compa-
nies. Consequently, GCI's market is, by law, restricted to governmental agencies and educational units. There is no involvement with sales

to I'rivate industry and business. The operation of GCI is not only profitable to the state, but is of great benefit to the 1,039 inmates involved in the production phases.
Again by law, inmates under supervision of the Georgta Department of Corrections cannot be paid for their labor. However, the skills and experience gained with the Industries
programs have proved most marketable for mmates released back into the community. This experience is further augmented by the accredi-
tation they receive from state vocational schools for their participation within the program.
The chart oelow outlines the diversification of GCI and the availability of work for interested inmates.
