State Legislation

(OK) Oklahoma House Bill 2101

This bill, also known as the Transformational Justice Act, encourages state prisons to partner with faith-based, community and voluntary organizations to help inmates rejoin society and reduce the rate of repeat offenders. The bill authorizes the Oklahoma Reintegration of Inmates Task Force to select a location for an inmate integration program and determine the projected costs of such a program. Inmates who are less than a year away from release would be eligible for the program.
