Sent on behalf of Shellí Honeywell, Administrator of AIC Financial ServicesHistorically, receipts were provided for each deposit made into an AIC’s Trust Account(s) statewide. After careful consideration of environmental factors (such as responsible use of available resources), workload and rule compliance, it has been decided to cease printing receipts. However, AICs will continue to receive their monthly Trust Accounts Statement.? The Trust Rule states that Central Trust may provide an AIC with a receipt for authorized money items received and credited to the AIC’s trust account upon request.? Effective October 1, 2019, receipts will not be automatically generated for each deposit.Should an AIC wish to receive a copy of a receipt or information regarding a deposit, they may send an electronic AIC communication to AIC Financial Services (preferred) or a paper AIC communication (CD214).? Keep in mind that if an AIC receives a Telmate deposit, they must go through the vendor for specific deposit information.? If you have any questions regarding this matter, you may address them with Dawn Wagner, Statewide Business Service Manager or Bob Culp, Central Trust Manager.PROPOSED RULES:Below is the list of status changes made to DOC administrative rules and policies since 07/10/19.

Inside-Out courses are designed to bring college students and incarcerated people together to study as peers.The class is framed to create a space for exchange between the “inside” (incarcerated) and “outside” (Lewis & Clark undergraduate) students. The goal of the class is not only to learn subject matter, but to participate in a collaborative dialogue that will allow all of us to communicate across boundaries, confront fears and stereotypes, generate unexpected insights, and meet one another as members of the same society. This course, offered by Lewis and Clark College, will trace the historical development of the prison system in the United States, examining how Americans have engaged in—and interpreted—crime in different historical eras and the various ways Americans have sought to deter, punish, and rehabilitate. Topics of the course will include the origins of the prison system in the United States, convict labor in the Jim Crow South, the war on drugs, gender in prison, and the economics of prison growth. The semester will conclude with a student-created theater piece which students will perform to a small invited public at CRCI.Where and when will the course be held?Classes will be held at CRCI, 1-4pm on Fridays, from January 17 to May, 2020.Who is the instructor?Reiko Hillyer holds a Ph.D. in History and is a professor at Lewis & Clark College where she teaches courses in African American and urban history.

HanleyYou may have seen the new wall display case next to the Dining Hall and wondered where it came from?It was a gift donated to the institution from the Multnomah County Library Association. The Library will be placing items into the display case soon promoting the good work they provide our Adults in Custody through the “A Book is a Bridge” program, which is a literacy program that teaches the importance for fathers to read to their children.The program operates through funding from the Library Association and grant monies. When they have additional funds remaining they will spend it on such things as this year’s display case and last year’s rolling carts filled with children’s toys and books, which they also continue to stock. The Library will fill half the display case with their items and leave the remaining half for the institution to fill.CRCI Second Chance Program.? CRCI has welcomed 2 new dogs Vera & Leah are both a Siberian-Husky mix. Vera is approximately 4 years old and Leah is approximately 6 years old.You will notice that both dogs are currently sporting Red bandanas.? This means that there is NO staff/inmate interaction with the dogs at the moment.? Fingers crossed that the volunteer Dog Trainer will graduate both dogs to green Friday 4th?but, until then, hugs and pets will have to wait.Also, please do not offer any sort of “human” food to the dogs.? Dog treats are acceptable, human food is not.? We are trying to monitor their food intake and your help is greatly appreciated. The plan is to adopt these two girls out together.THE FOLLOWING SIGN WILL BE POSTED IN VISITING:Oregon Department of CorrectionsMajor Changes to the Visiting RulesThe Oregon Department of Corrections Visiting Rules (291-127) have received some important updates.

Ask a staff member during or @doc.state.or.us or (503) 945-9090FLU FAQFLU FactsOregon SB488 requires Oregon Department of Corrections to offer flu vaccine to all AIC on an opt-out basis; meaning everyone will sign a consent form accepting or declining flu vaccine beginning flu season 2019-mon MythsMyth:Flu shots make you sickFact:The body creates what is called an innate immune response anytime a vaccine enters it. The immune system ‘feels’ the genetic information given by the vaccine and starts a response that can make a person feel yucky! This is NOT the flu, rather it is a well-recognized vaccine-related immune response that naturally occurs in a healthy immune system. NOTE: the flu shot is not whole ‘dead’ flu virus.Myth: The flu shot doesn’t work – the media told us so last yearFact:The flu vaccine attempts to overr as many strains of flu that are projected to be ‘out’ in a given year. A) the vaccine doesn’t capture them all; B) the virus might be a slightly different ‘flavor’ than what the vaccine is for.What it CAN DO IS:It might prevent you from getting the actual flu during the 2019-2020 flu season if the vaccine works well;It definitely can help prevent against bad complications if you do get the flu, like you won’t get as sick as someone who doesn’t have a built-in-immune response to the flu; andThere is this weird thing call immune archiving. The immune system is like a computer in a way, it keeps data on vaccines that we have received and if a strain of flu comes around that we’ve been vaccinated against, the immune system will ‘remember it’ and try to fight it. Remember the big deal about the swine flu in 2009? It was expected to cause a major pandemic, but it didn’t really because so many people had been vaccinated against that strain of flu earlier in their lives! So the ‘old vaccine’ saved from the ‘new flu’Myth:Only old people get the fluFact:Everyone gets the flu, it is more likely to cause severe illness in or kill older and younger people. But people who live in prison and who have multiple chronic health conditions are likely to get bad complications from flu, so prevention really helps.Myth:Medical doesn’t care if we get the flu or not, they won’t do anything why should we bother?Fact:Good point, it doesn’t really matter what someone else does about YOUR health, you are in charge of your health (or not, if you chose to do nothing). Moreover, they are taking flu and flu-related complications very seriously… They will try to prevent and then contain an outbreak as much as possible for your health and the health of your visitors.Myth:Vaccines are bad for you, they cause things like AutismFact:There are no studies showing the causal nature of vaccines-in-and-of-themselves to cause any chronic or debilitating conditions.
