Corrections and Rehabilitation

The mission of the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) is to improve public safety through evidence-based crime prevention and recidivism reduction strategies. These strategies include providing safe and secure detention facilities for adults and juveniles, educational opportunities, services such as food, clothing, health care, direct supervision, surveillance, and when necessary, apprehension of the state's parolee population. The CDCR is organized into 12 programs: Corrections and Rehabilitation Administration; Corrections Standards Authority; Juvenile Operations; Juvenile Education, Vocations, and Offender Programs; Juvenile Parole Operations; Juvenile Health Care Services; Adult Operations; Adult Parole Operations; Board of Parole Hearings; Community Partnerships; Adult Education, Vocations, and Offender Programs; and Correctional Healthcare Services.

Excluding infrastructure adjustments, the Governor's Budget includes $10 billion ($9.7 billion General Fund and $321.5 million other funds) for CDCR. This reflects an increase of $249.5 million ($444.6 million General Fund) or 2.6 percent over the revised 2006-07 budget. The funding by program proposed for the Department is shown in Figure DCR-01. Notable funding changes are further described below.
