DOC Family Wellness 1st - Guide (MV)

(Recommended)

2026-2027

Family members are currently housed at the D.C. Department of Corrections system, this guide was built for you. D.C. Central Detention Facility is slated for demolition. Transfers are coming 2026-2030— and families who are unprepared will be the last to know and the slowest to respond. This guide changes that.

What's inside:

• Transfer Readiness Protocol — what to do before, during, and after a facility transfer, including a personal response plan you fill out and keep
• Your Advocacy Rights — D.C. Code § 24-211.02, and PREA, with direct guidance on how to cite each one in writing
• Professional Proxy Role & Authorization Record — how to officially designate someone
• Three Advocacy Scripts — ready-to-use, fillable templates, rights to do wellness checks and escalations
• Daily Status Check & Getting Started Gateway — two entry point process
• DOC Key Contacts & External Oversight — D.C. DOC, GTL/ViaPath, ACLU-DC, Corrections Information.. and more, all in one place

Easy Fillable forms on your device. Yours to keep and update.

This is not legal advice. It is the organized, strategic framework that most families never have — until it's too late to build one.
