Inmates will receive an Inmate Program Review by their Unit Team shortly after arrival at FCC, Coleman-Low. Inmates arriving at FCC, Coleman-Low as their initial commitment, or who transfer from another federal institution, will meet their Unit Team within 28 days of arrival. Supervise Release Violators and Writ returns will meet with their team within 14 days. In either case, your last name will be placed on the Call-out sheet, which will indicate the time and the date of this meeting.

At Initial Classification, program goals will be established and other pertinent information, as it relates to the inmate’s particular case, will be discussed. At scheduled reviews, inmates should discuss requests or concerns they may have, such as consideration for transfer to another facility, request for detail assignment changes, etc., and updates will be recorded as to the progress on goals inmates have made since arrival. Please note, Per Program Statement, Inmate Security Designation and Custody Classification, 5100.08, inmates must remain at this facility 18 months with clear conduct before being considered for a Nearer Release Transfer. If you are transferred here from another institution and are over 500 miles of your release residence, you will not be considered for a transfer until you have been here for 18-months and remained infraction free.

After Initial Classification, you will be scheduled to meet with your Unit Team every 180 days until you are within one year of your release date. Inmates with less than one-year remaining will meet every 90 days. When inmates are 17-19 months from their release date, they will be evaluated for consideration for a RRC placement (see above RRC section for more information). It is mandatory to attend Initial Classification and subsequent program reviews. Failure to attend may result in the issuance of an Incident Report.

When it has been determined an inmate is a citizen of a foreign country, a Consular representative of that country will be allowed to visit on matters of legitimate business. Normally, Consular representatives visit the institution on an as-needed basis. If you wish to contact your Consulate, submit a request through your Unit Team to the Warden. You may also correspond with the Consulate via mail or telephone. An inmate, who is qualified for and desires to return to his country of citizenship for service of a sentence imposed in a United States Court, shall indicate his interest by completing and signing the appropriate forms with his Case Manager. This is known as the Transfer of Offenders to or from Foreign Countries, or the Treaty Transfer Program. Not all countries are members of the Treaty Transfer Program. For detailed information, see your Case Manager. Both the Treaty Transfer Program and Consular Visits are addressed during the Institution Admission and Orientation Program.

Inmates are required to develop a responsible payment plan concerning any court-imposed financial obligation. The Unit Team will discuss the various payment plans during your Program Reviews. Failure to follow the plan developed will constitute refusal and may result in the loss of room assignment, performance pay restriction (limited to $5.25 per month) no special purchase orders, and a poor responsibility score on your Custody Classification form, no consideration for employment in UNICOR, change of quarters, $25.00 commissary spending limitation, transfers, CCC, or furlough participation. The Inmate Financial Responsibility program is voluntary; however, failure to participate will result in the above listed consequences.
