The PREA Resource Center assigned Just Detention International to conduct a review of all PREA-related policies for the Albany County Jail. The policy review will include recommendations for strengthening and expanding existing policy. JDI will recommend procedures to help Albany County implement and sustain the policies outlined in day-to-day facility practice. Furthermore, JDI will develop an Incident Review Checklist to aide Albany County in its review of all substantiated and unsubstantiated PREA incidents.
