A SMOOTHER PROCESS WHEN SELF-SURRENDERING

1. Verify with all parties that the receiving facility has received all the required judge’s orders for your arrival before you get there, 18 U.S.C. § 3621(c).

· If you arrive before your commitment orders (no matter how rare that may be), you may be placed in an Isolation Cell, and now that they have you, they’re not likely to let you go.

· If we have prepared you, you will have books arriving soon, which should take the edge off should they keep you in Isolation longer than several days.

2. If you’re ultimately designated to a ‘satellite’ camp, know that you must present yourself to the adjacent, ‘higher’ secure facility – not the satellite camp. If you’re going to a Free Standing Federal Prison Camp (FPC), No Worries, and you will not be facing most of these challenges.

· Also, know that at the higher secure facility, you will likely see prisoners in handcuffs and shackles, guards with long guns, guard towers, etc., so just an FYI.

· Being prepared is essential – this is not the time for surprises. This is because every client will deal with the emotional aspects of “prison,” each in their own way, especially if it’s their first time.

3. Once inside, you will be screened and given a change of clothes. The clothes and peripherals they came with will be boxed and mailed to your ‘legal residence’. You’ll also have to strip, squat, and cough.

4. The copies (or originals) of your birth certificate, passport, driver’s license, and social security card will all be kept and returned to you at the time of your release.

5. What Not to do while you’re there,

· No Alcohol, Drugs, Gambling, or Sex with Inmates or Staff.

· When you’re first there, keep a low profile until you understand prison better; look for someone like you.

· No chit-chat, casual talking to guards.

· Don’t be an informant.

· Don’t use anyone’s Cell Phone.

· It’s normal to be apprehensive at first.

· Emails and USPS letters are read, and calls are monitored (Never do a 3-WayCall)

· Don’t use someone else’s medications.

· The TV Room is under others’ control – don’t change the channel if others watch TV.

· Don’t miss counts, find out where the Call-Out Sheet is, and look at it daily for your name.

· Be Respectful to other inmates, their personal space, and staff.
