Call to Order, Chair Rev. Michael Coleman

Vice Chair Richard LaMere called the meeting to order.

Welcome new Board Member Lisa Hill. Lisa replaces Nancy Turner on the Board of
Corrections.
 Lisa Hill is the Associate Principal at Ankeny High School. She is married to William Hill who
works for the Iowa Attorney General. In 2012-2013 Lisa did her dissertation work going into
Iowa Prisons interviewing former students that were current offenders. She found it very
interesting to make the connection to K-12 education and what we can do better. She found
that the prison system, what they shared provided a lot to help them get their lives turned
around.

Richard LaMere asked for any changes or a motion to approve the April 10, 2015 minutes.
Dr. Mary Chapman made a motion to approve the minutes and Larry Kudej seconded the
motion. All members were in favor of approving the minutes, motion passed.

Larry Kudej made a motion to formally approve the three person committee (Rebecca
Williams, Dr. John Chalstrom, and Larry Kudej) to work on a handbook for the Board
Members. Dr. Mary Chapman seconded the motion. All members were in favor of formally
approving the three person committee, motion passed.

The next Board meeting will be June 5, 2015 in Ft. Dodge. The board meeting will be held at
the Ft. Dodge Correctional Facility starting at 9:00 a.m.
(A meeting notice will be posted on the DOC website: www.doc.state.ia.us)
Welcome, Superintendent Kris Weitzell

Superintendent Kris Weitzell welcomed the Board and visitors to the Clarinda Correctional
Facility (CCF).
The mission of the Iowa Department of Corrections is to:
Advance successful offender reentry to protect the public, staff and offenders from victimization.


Kris introduced the CCF Management Team: Roxanne Phillips, Unit Manager; Deb Murray,
Nursing Director; Jim Payne, Associate Warden of Security; Shawn Howard, Associate
Warden of Treatment; Bob Riddle, Unit Manager; Meredith Baker, Associate Warden of
Administration.
Director’s Report, Director Jerry Bartruff

Director Bartruff welcomed Lisa Hill to the Board.

Director Bartruff also welcomed Rick Shults from the Department of Human Services (DHS)
and several staff from the Ombudsman’s Office: Bert Dalmer, Elena Mitchell-Sadler, Angela
McBride to the meeting.

Director Bartruff has been visiting most of the Iowa DOC prisons to acknowledge the good
work they’re doing on a daily basis, to see what some of the issues are, and to see what we
can do to better as involved partners in problem solving. We want to make ourselves
available and willing to help solve problems, but also to celebrate the really good work that
happens in the institutions on a daily basis.

The Legislative session continues to unwind. There have been ongoing conversations with
the Senate leadership and the House leadership about ISP (Iowa State Penitentiary). We
think we’ve been able to shift the conversation from what went wrong, to how are we going to
get open.

When we were at ISP two weeks ago there were several law enforcement agencies on
grounds discussing the move of offenders.

Last week was Crime Victims’ Rights Week. The Iowa DOC is very dedicated to do
everything we can so there are no more victims. We can’t prevent the victimization from
happening that got people to prison, but our reentry efforts, our treatment programs, the way
we manage offenders, the way we plan for their reentry, the ultimate goal is no more victims.

Next week is National Correctional Workers’ Week. The Governor signed a Proclamation on
Monday for Correctional Workers. We want to acknowledge the good hard work that is done
in the institutions every day.
Mental Health Services Update, Rick Shults

Rick Shults is the Administrator for Mental Health in Disability Services (MHDS) for DHS.

We believe there are significant improvements taking place in Mental Health in Disability
Services in Iowa and we want to make sure you’re aware of them.

Some of the high points I want to hit today include the MHDS redesign. I want to talk about
some of the things that have been moving forward with our existing managed care process
with Magellan. This ties directly with the Iowa Health and Wellness Plan and the successes
that we’re seeing there and to bring you up to date a little bit on some of the statistics about
people being served, and receiving behavioral health services in particular, through the Iowa
Health and Wellness Plan. Talk a little bit about the Mental Health Institution (MHI)
realignment that we’re in the midst of. Touch briefly on the Medicaid Modernization that’s
going to be rolling out here in the next 6-8 months.

While I’m talking about these in three discreet parts, they all run together simultaneously
working together. They’re all tied together. In talking about them I don’t do justice to them by
talking about them individually, but that’s what I’m going to do today.

MHDS Redesign (Approved MHDS Regions handout)

The MHDS Redesign is built around three primary pillars
 Locally Delivered Services
 Regionally Administered Services
 Statewide Standards

Statewide Standards have established a minimum floor for service delivery for Iowans across
the state.

Locally Delivered Services is something that we continue to emphasis because the next thing
I’m going to talk about is Regional Administration. Those two concepts some times get
confused. If you have regions, you have to go to the region – or a long distance away to get

services. One is Administration and the other is Service Delivery. We expect services to be
delivered at the local level along with those access standards I spoke about a minute ago.
The Approved MHDS Regions Map* shows the 15 regions that we have approved across the
state, what you can immediately notice is these regions were determined by the relationships
that each of the counties individually decided they wanted to develop.
Core Plus Services* are key services, that are very important. This affirms how the regions
have been affected.
One of the big changes that has been made is the implementation of what’s called an
Integrated Health Home. Integrated Health Home is a way that the federal government allows
us to draw Medicaid money down to improve the way we provide care coordination.
The Iowa Health & Wellness Plan allows a very creative approach to having both public and
private approaches to providing health insurance for individuals. We have more than 115,000
people who were previously either uninsured or underinsured who are on the Iowa Health and
Wellness Plan now.
As part of this overall process we are going through Mental Health Institute realignment. I
would say this is not a new idea. In short, we are closing down the programs that are
operating at the Clarinda Facility here for MHI and the Mt. Pleasant Facility. We’re also going
to open up 30 additional acute adult in-patient psychiatric beds in Independence. When we’re
done we’re going to have six more adult acute in-patient hospital beds than we had when we
started. So this is for acute in-patient hospital it is really a modest expansion in the services
that are being delivered. That’s an important part of the story, we’re looking at a variety of
ways in order to accomplish that. The first thing to remember is each of our mental health
institutes are not the same as the others. They have some very unique parts to them.
 Cherokee up in the North West, you see a mental health institute probably more along the
line of what you would think about a mental health institute. It provides services for
individuals with acute psychiatric symptoms. Nearly everyone that goes to the adult
program is involuntary. They have a 12 bed program for children and they provide acute
in-patient psychiatric hospitalization in a nationally accredited facility. So that would be
what most people would think of being a mental health institute.
 Independence is very similar to that. They have adults and children. They do have one
more feature, they do operate a Psychiatric Medical Institution for Children (PMIC) on
grounds that Cherokee does not. That’s not an in-patient service. You could think of it
kind of in terms of a subacute program for children.
 Mt. Pleasant and Clarinda are different. The Mt. Pleasant Facility had a fairly small acute
in-patient hospital program. They operated nine beds in their program, so it was fairly
small. In the last couple years we actually had a great deal of difficulty finding appropriate
community placement that could support them. With the advent of these new services
and with redesign becoming more successful at finding placement for individuals they
really only admitted a small number of individuals last year because they had people there
that were long term.
 They did have a dual diagnosis program. That provided essentially a 30-day
substance abuse treatment for people with serious mental illness. They had a
residential substance abuse treatment program on grounds. So if you think of Mt.
Pleasant, you can’t think of the entire facility providing acute adult in-patient
psychiatric services. There were a variety of different components to it that were
different kinds of services. As we move toward not having that facility there, we of
course are going to have those additional beds coming online in Independence and
they will be able to serve the adult acute facilities. We’re also going to rely on the
extensive provider network for substance abuse treatment. We have 421 residential
substance abuse treatment beds in Iowa. We have 292 of those beds that provide
services for people with co-ocurent conditions, so we would turn to those folks and we
have been working very closely with the Department of Public Health (DPH) to link up
with people that were receiving substance abuse services in Mt. Pleasant with those
providers. So we have an ongoing relationship.
3

Here at Clarinda we have a 15-bed acute psychiatric hospital for adults. Generally
speaking in terms of our capability of serving folks, we have been operating at just a
little more than half that capacity for quite some time.
 We are expanding our service array in Independence to pick up on the acute adult and
we’re going to be relying on other providers to provide services for the gero-psychiatric
individuals.
 I think you’re aware that there is a RFP out for Medicaid Modernization. It will allow the
entire Medicaid program to be operated in its totality in a managed approach.

Larry Kudej: Since we’re the Board of Corrections how does this impact here and Mt.
Pleasant as far as the transition as far as where are you at, what’s it going to look like after
DHS is no longer there? I know the funding process is just in its infant stages, but the
Legislature doesn’t look like it’s too anxious to take any of the money from your budget and
put it in our budget. Is that going to impact how we move forward?
 Rick Shults: I do know the Governor recommended, I think you’re aware there are shared
responsibilities at these two campuses between the DOC and DHS. They was funding
that DHS made available to pay for some of those shared services and in the overall plan
in the Governor’s budget recommendation those funds moved to the DOC. Now the
question as we go through the legislative process is are our legislators hearing and
accepting those plans. I know in the Senate the proposal that I’ve seen so far is talking
about extending operations of facilities, but they’re talking about extending those
operations using Federal Block Grant dollars to do it. So that something we’re going to
have to explore to determine if that’s even possible. We know DOC needs the support of
those funds in order to make up for those shared services.
 Jerry Bartruff: We’ve talked a little bit about that previously, but it’s unfolding a little bit
differernt than the Governor originally planned. So we’ll see what happens by the end of
the session. Those shared services include some staff salaries that perform functions for
both DHS’s MHI and DOC, maintenance activities to maintain the buildings and the
grounds. I think even though there is a move to close the facilities there’s still buildings
that need to be maintained. Probably more importantly is the staff that provide those
shared services to make sure that they continue to have employment. We can take over
that extra percentage. Being able to continue to employ those people that provide those
shared services is huge for us. We hope as this unfoldes that the original plan to ship
money from DHS, their share of that, to DOC we hope that continues but we’ll have to
wait and see in the next two or three weeks.
 Larry Kudej: What is the plan as far as time wise, when would you anticipate this all
happening? shifted up to Independence timeframe
 Rick Shults: The Governor’s recommending there be no funding for State FY16, which
would be June 30th, 2015.
 Jerry Bartruff: I was just at Mt. Pleasant the other day and the acute psychiatric patients
that were there have all been transferred. They aren’t receiving any additional patients of
that status there, if they need those services, they’d go to Independence. They still are
running the substance abuse programs, but that’s a 30-day program, so at some point
they’ll unwind that. I think the challenges are some of the general psych people you have
here and finding that safe and secure placement that provides the services they need.
The goal is still as it was at the beginning of the session, but there’s some moving pieces
yet to further define that.

FY’16 Budget Update, Brad Hier

The Senate voted not to transfer funds from DHS to DOC for the closing of the Clarinda and
Mt. Pleasant MHIs.

The Senate comes in at $405,000 higher than the Governor’s recommended budget.


The House voted not to transfer funders from DHS to DOC for the closing of the Clarinda and
Mt. Pleasant MHIs.
The House comes in at $4,644,626 lower than the Governor’s recommended budget.
Larry Kudej: Are we primarily working now with leadership in the Legislature at this point in
time?
 Brad Hier: Correct. Once the perdium ends, the majority of Senators and House
members vacate and you see more of the leadership take over from that standpoint. I
don’t know all the nuances of how they communicate with their subcommittees, but you
do see fewer people at the Capitol.
 Jerry Bartruff: There’s Justice Appropriations Subcommittee has members on both sides
of the aisle and both houses and they continue to be a kind of broker if you will between
both the House and the Senate. There’s a whole lot of maneuvering going on right now.
 Brad Hier: Some years you’ll have the Justice Committee come together with the House
and Senate, they’ll confer then offer up, this year it was a rather separated process.
Which occurs every now and then. We have a ways to go, but we’ll keep monitoring it. If
they do finish between now and June 5th we’ll have an update on what the final numbers
will be. If they don’t then we’ll have the update at the July meeting.

Telephone Cost Analysis, Brad Hier

As we’re all aware October 1, 2014 we made the flat rate of $3.15 effective. It does comply
with the FCC Cap Rules, which are $3.15 for a 15 minute call or $0.21 per minute. We’re
under that as we allow 20 minute calls. We had hoped we’d see an increase in the volume of
calls, the costs were lowered, in fact the previous maximum for long distance calls could go
upward of $7.40 and we had further higher costs on International rate. We’re excited to say
that based upon the analysis that we have we’ve got excellent news. Offenders and families
have experienced greater communication. We’re up almost 145,000 in additional call volume
since October. The average monthly call volume as we kept progressing since October is
even approaching 100,000, we’re going to continue to monitor this. That call volume
compared to the prior months at 50,000-60,000 we’re almost doubling. 75% of the calls get to
the 19 or 20 minute mark. That was another piece we were curious of, were people going to
hang up at the 5-10 minute mark. Another thing that we had and we’ve updated the Board on
prior to this as well, prior to the October 1st transfer to the flat rate, we’ve allowed and
programed some offender kiosk enhancements which now allow the offender the
convenience of putting money on their phone account from their bank account at a kiosk in
addition to families sending in funds for the phone account. The other piece we’re reviewing
but we didn’t have it done at October 1, but we also wanted to essentially get to a net cost
scenario with International calls. Since February calls are up over 800%, we were averaging
62 calls a month and were up close to 500 at this point. Again we suspect that will continue
to increase. Our biggest call volumes are Mexico and Canada. The other piece that we have
as well is that the cost for the International call is down nearly 70% from $12.61 to $3.90 per
call. Based on the call volume ect., we’ve got some rates we’d like to propose.

The next few sheets that are here are for your analysis over the next month. You’ve got the
average cost per call. Which is referred to in the talking points with the $56,576. The next
sheet gives you detail on the costing per call increments. The sheet after that you can see
where the 5% component is there, you can see each of the other areas from 0:01 to 5:00
minutes, ect. they’re all about 5-6% the other categories. The last sheet is the analysis for the
international calls. What I’ll do before we go into the rate analysis, are there any questions up
to this point?
 Larry Kudej: When we talked about this six months ago, you had been advised to share
this kind of information with the Ombudsman’s Office. Has the Ombudsman’s Office been
made aware of these figures?
 Brad Hier: Yes. We’ve been in correspondence with Angela and her office.

FY’15 Telephone Rate Update, Fred Scaletta and Brad Hier

With the extra volume and the lower average cost we had committed to the Board back in
October 2014, before the new rate went into effect, that we would continue to monitor the rate
and if we could make further reductions we would. We’re proposing at this time to go from a
$3.15 flat rate, drop it by a quarter to $2.90. This is not a proposal we’ll need you to act on
today. We would like to ask that this be a recommendation. Have the Board do some further
analysis, if necessary, through the month of May. We would come back and have this as an
action item for June and have it go into effect July 1, 2015. So that will give you some time to
check everything out. If the new $2.90 rate is approved in June, going into effect in July, we
will also continue to monitor and we may recommend further rate reductions in the future. We
have education needs, there’s some administrative needs. In July or August you’ll turn right
around and approve expenditures out of this fund. We’ll do some more analysis on the DOC
side for education, apprentice programs, etc. that we’ll be able to come back to the Board and
give some more feedback on that. If you do equate the $2.90 out for a 20 minute call it’s
$0.14½ per minute. I think we’re going in the right direction in trying to be fair across the
board for the families of the offender population as well as meeting the global needs that we
have for education which impacts recidivism. The message couldn’t be any better or more
positive.

February 16, 2015 Ombudsman’s Report, Bert Dalmer

Bert Dalmer is a Senior Assistant Ombudsman and the author of the report that was issued
several months ago about the disciplinary system.

I assume everyone’s had a chance to review it. I think it’s fair to say we still have concerns.
We issued nine recommendations and none of them were accepted. That is a concern to us,
to the Ombudsman. We do believe that eight of the nine recommendations were systemic. In
other words the investigation we did here was at first a singular investigation, about a singular
case. But as we asked questions, as we posed concerns about certain aspects of that
particular hearing we were met with a fair amount of resistance, received what we considered
to be questionable justifications for the actions that were taken. I believe at that point after
things had been veted the Ombudsman, who’s an attorney, and our General Counsel also
had a look at the findings. Elena Mitchell-Sadler who’s our correctional expert in-house she
also had a good part in helping vet the report. The report then became systemic. The
individual problems we saw in the individual case became systemic by virtue of the responses
we were receiving by DOC. So we continue to have concerns as expressed in the report.

We’re not the only ones with concerns at this point. You may have noticed from the report
that the Iowa Supreme Court also had some commentary on what happened in this particular
case. They said that the behavior between the ALJ (Administrative Law Judge) and the
Warden was improper. It’s not just the Ombudsman that has problems with what happened
here, so we’re concerned that greater fixes might be necessary and some policies enacted to
address these problems.

I will say that the last couple weeks we’ve had a good, thorough, productive discussion with
Director Bartruff. He’s agreed to reconsider some of the matters we’ve brought up in the
report, so at this point it’s still a bit of an open question at what might arise from our report.
We’re hopeful we can get some fixes.

February 16, 2015 Ombudsman’s Report, William Hill

William Hill works for the Iowa Department of Justice.

I regularly represent the DOC. Occasionally I make presentations to the Board about matters
of a general concern, or to give litigation updates in terms of what’s going on in the DOC.
6

I certainly understand that the Ombudsman’s Office has made a report and it’s not my
intention to re-litigate every issue and every finding that they made. I just want to give you
some background on the prison disciplinary system and provide some general observations
as to the court. Certainly the discipline, with regards to Mr. Linderman, occurred in 2008 and
obviously our assessment of that differs. However, since that time I know that on average
there’s 10,000 plus hearings a year. The focus is not over the individual issues it’s more of a
systemic issue. Our examination is that there’s no wide spread problems or issues that
require reform or any further resolution.
 To give you just a brief idea of what we’re talking about in the prison disciplinary system
because it’s kind of a unique creature. It dates back to 1974 in a United States Supreme
Court case called Wolf vs. McDonald. In that case the court kind of balanced what really
was at stake versus the level of due process that was due. The court looked at a bunch
of the factors and it said these are not really judicial hearings. There’s no court room,
there’s no lawyers, there’s no cross-examinations of witnesses, but at the same time they
realize that these little disciplinary hearings took place within a prison.
 It’s a standard administrative hearing, although I think how it’s carved out in the statutory
language, it’s really not even up to what you’d call a typical 17A or administrative
procedures. It’s somewhere in between.
 There’s a limited right to call, to get some evidence, to make an argument. There’s an
opportunity to be heard, there’s no right to cross-examination. The decision maker
usually makes a quick 1-page decision that says here’s what I find, here’s what the
decision is. If the inmate is unhappy, if he’s convicted of the disciplinary infraction, he can
appeal to the Warden. Once he appeals to the Warden, that’s not the end of the
disciplinary process. Here in Iowa the process can go on for a long time and this is where
I become involved and the Attorney General’s Office becomes involved. An inmate can
file a Post-Conviction Relief (PCR) action in State District Court. That appeal can
continue in the State District Court process for a while. If he’s unhappy with that, the
procedure now is that he can file a Petition for Writ of Certiorari to the Iowa Supreme
Court.
 Now in terms of the disciplinary philosophy, this is where we kind of start to veer off into
the issues which were subject to the Ombudsman’s report, it’s the age old debate in
prison discipline. Do you give the ALJ total discretion to decide the sentence or is there
going to be some sort of sentencing guideline or matrix like under the Federal Criminal
Rules where you look at a matrix to figure out the punishment? In Iowa it used to be the
ALJ could take any or all time and pose a sanction. There were certainly merits to that
because the ALJ at each institution is different, each offender is different, you’re not
always guaranteed the same result by a different judge. That’s just part of the judicial
process, it’s the discretion. We’ve moved away from that now in the DOC and there’s
kind of a matrix, Class A, B, C and D. When you get to that type of thing there could be
arguments with regards to where are they at on the matrix, should they have had this?
You lose some of that discretion, but that’s kind of the age old kind of how much
discretion, who should decide, the judge or should we have this table.
 Each and every discipline is subject to multiple appeals, court review, there are countless
opportunities for an inmate to make such challenges. It’s just in this case, out of the
thousands of disciplines that got done was there evidence of undue influence upon the
ALJ? She clearly said no. That’s where you get to the integrity and experience of the
ALJ. You can’t have a system where there’s total isolation because I think what you’re
balancing is these prison disciplinary are you going to make them into fullblown court
cases or are they going to be what they should be and that is quick, swift, administrative
proceedings? Basically is there a prison disciplinary system in Iowa? Yes. Is this system
constitutional? Yes. Is it fair? Yes. Is it impartial? Yes. Is there any indications that a
problem needs to be fixed? No. But I think as you’ve heard between the discussions
between Director Bartruff and the Ombudsman’s Office are constantly working to make
that system better and that’s the important thing. The ultimate resolution is not what
7
happened seven years ago, but what’s going to happen in the future. I think the DOC is
always willing and open to see what works and what will work best in the future.
Research in Brief, Jennifer Guild

Lettie Prell the Research Director wrote this up. She was unable to be here today.

In 2010 the Newton Correctional Facility (NCF) piloted a minor report program to increase the
use of minor reports. Instead of just going to a major report, have staff write the minor report
and issue the sanction. Which is the swift, sure, get it done, address the behavior and
hopefully change and correct that behavior before you get to a major report. So what Lettie
looked at is in 2010 the percent of offenders leaving prison who had one or more major
reports that they were guilty of, was 49.3%. She looked at five years. In 2014, we’re down to
36.5%. So the major reports that are being written and that offenders are being found guilty
of are decreasing and we think that’s because of the use of these minor reports.

Public Comments, Public

Jean Basinger works with Iowa CURE (Citizens United for the Rehabilitation of Errants) and
the JRC (Justice Reform Consortiuum).
 CURE works for the Restorative Justice approach to our criminal justice system. One of
the things we’ve been working on for many years is the reduction of the cost of phone
calls. I really want to express our thanks for the work that has been done in the last
couple years on this issue because we really believe in keeping family connections. Our
members are basically family members and also prisoners. So we know in talking to them
what a hardship it has been for these high priced phone calls. We commend the work
you’ve done. We do agree with the Ombudsman’s Office that we would like to see the
charges per minute rather than the flat rate, but I’ve had a lot of letters from our members
saying what this reduction has meant as far as their being able to keep connections with
their families. So I want to thank you.
 I would also like to thank you for making the sign up for health insurance available before
people are discharged.

MISSION STATEMENT
To advance positive High Risk Offender achievement
through evaluation, education, and by challenging
belief systems, in order to make a safer correctional
environment for staff, offenders and volunteers.
VISION
Our Vision is to become a premier program in addressing
High Risk offender needs, as being first of such programs in the
State of Iowa in setting the standard for providing
programming for High Risk offenders. Our offenders will
actively participate in structured programming that
challenges offenders to look at the harm they have caused
themselves and others in order to bring about positive
change. We will have seamless teamwork supporting the
offender in achieving their personal potential. As a team
employees will thrive, applying their unique skills and abilities
to support and promote the High Risk Orientation Program.
Together, we will succeed.
DEVELOPMENT
The High Risk Orientation Class (HiROC) was
developed and implemented at the Fort Dodge
Correctional facility due to the fact it was observed
that there was a direct correlation of offenders who
committed rule violations and offenders that scored
high on risk for victimization or violence on the Iowa
Board of Parole Risk Assessment.
