66 1. Policy:
67 11. To the extent that resources are available:
68 111. Educational programs should be offered to inmates; and
69 111. Facilities and equipment for educational programs should be provided.
70 11. The types of educational programs offered may depend on:
71 111. The availability of community educational resources;
72 111. The average daily population of the facility; and
73 111. A determination of the educational needs of the general inmate population.
74 11. Jail staff should contact state and/or local boards of education to seek their assistance in providing education programs.
75 1. Rationale:
76 11. Many inmates lack the education and/or skills necessary to make them competitive for employment after release.
77 11. Education may help improve an inmate's capability to lawfully function in society after release.
78 11. A large number of inmates with similar educational deficiencies can be served more cost effectively.
79 11. The boards of education may be able to supply additional resources. The Utah Legislature has created statutory responsibility for the State Board of Education, subject to legislative appropriation, for the education of persons in the custody of the Utah Department of Corrections. PCF typically holds some UDC prisoners.
