| CLASSIFICATION AFTER INCARCERATION After the court has sentenced the offender, he/she is sentenced to the Department of Corrections to begin serving time. The offender¹s first destination is a regional classification center or reception center. Upon arrival to the Department of Corrections, the offender is given a prison identification number (such as 112194, etc.), a mug shot is made, bunk assigned, issued clothing, and then taken to his/her cell. The following day he/she must attend orientation to obtain rules, regulations, services provided (i.e. health counseling, chaplain services, etc.). The offender is also assigned a counselor who will assist him/her with all counseling needs. Summaries and assessments are done on each offender. He/she will meet with the Classification Board who assesses his/her custody level and assigns each offender to the appropriate prison. |
