This report incorporates a futures study of the impact of jail industries on California corrections, a recommended strategic plan, and a transition management plan for jail industry programs. The inmate population in California State and county jails has increased by over 50 percent in the past 4 years and experts predict that there will be another 47-percent increase by the year 2000. In this futures study, five key trends were examined: the recognition of inmates' rights and responsibilities affecting corrections industries, the impact of restitutive sentencing on inmate work programs, competition for scarce private sector resources, the impact of the prison population on corrections' ability to house prisoners and modify behavior, and the prominence of rehabilitation as a corrections objective. Five probable events considered to be most critical included the role of private industry in corrections, the role of labor unions in working with jail industry programs, the contribution of special interest groups, court-ordered marketing constraints, and limitations on compensation. The strategic plan modeled here outlines steps for establishing a jail industries program, creating an interagency cooperative effort, developing community awareness and support, and preparing negotiation strategies to deal with key stakeholders. The transition plan focuses on the level of commitment, responsibility, and readiness for policy enactment of the key players, including the sheriff, county administrative officer, board of supervisors, and citizens.

When the tough-on-crime politics of the 1980s overcrowded state prisons, private companies saw potential profit in building and operating correctional facilities. Today more than a hundred thousand of the 1.5 million incarcerated Americans are held in private prisons in twenty-nine states and federal corrections. Private prisons are criticized for making money off mass incarceration—to the tune of $5 billion in annual revenue. Based on Lauren-Brooke Eisen’s work as a prosecutor, journalist, and attorney at policy think tanks, Inside Private Prisons blends investigative reportage and quantitative and historical research to analyze privatized corrections in America. From divestment campaigns to boardrooms to private immigration-detention centers across the Southwest, Eisen examines private prisons through the eyes of inmates, their families, correctional staff, policymakers, activists, Immigration and Customs Enforcement employees, undocumented immigrants, and the executives of America’s largest private prison corporations. Private prisons have become ground zero in the anti-mass-incarceration movement. Universities have divested from these companies, political candidates hesitate to accept their campaign donations, and the Department of Justice tried to phase out its contracts with them. On the other side, impoverished rural towns often try to lure the for-profit prison industry to build facilities and create new jobs. Neither an endorsement or a demonization, Inside Private Prisons details the complicated and perverse incentives rooted in the industry, from mandatory bed occupancy to vested interests in mass incarceration. If private prisons are here to stay, how can we fix them? This book is a blueprint for policymakers to reform practices and for concerned citizens to understand our changing carceral landscape.
