Organization/Publisher:FAMM
Author:Mary Price

FAMM’s Compassionate Release Report Cards look at how well states provide compassionate release to medically vulnerable, aging, and terminally ill incarcerated people. They grade each state program on key measures such as eligibility criteria, procedures, release planning, and data collection/public reporting. California has three compassionate release programs. “Recall of Sentence” received a grade of C-, “Medical Parole” received a grade of C, and “Elderly Parole” received a grade of F. California’s overall grade is D-.
