Case plans for nonviolent inmates; require certain programs be placed within.
HB 1015 would have required Mississippi's Department of Corrections to create detailed case plans for nonviolent inmates within 90 days of admission. These plans must include at least two of four specific rehabilitative programs: criminal thinking, substance abuse treatment, life skills, or behavioral health. The bill aimed to improve post-release outcomes by ensuring inmates had structured rehabilitation opportunities, with progress reviewed every 8 weeks and quarterly reports submitted to the Parole Board. However, the bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and never became law.
