The Governors budget also proposes 54 additional custodian supervisor positions in 202223 (increasing to 72 in 202324). Four of the five existing inprison bachelors degree programs were established without dedicated funding being provided directly through the state budget.

We note that it is possible that other factors (such as fewer drugs entering the prisons due to pandemicrelated restrictions on prison visiting) could havecontributed to the reduction in overdoserelated deaths, emergencies, and hospitalizations. For example, in order to assess inmates more rapidly, the department plans to use the ASAM CoTriagea condensed version of the full ASAM diagnostic tool currently used.

The Governors budget proposes $8.6million General Fund in 202223 (increasing to $10.5million annually in 202324) to expand the scope of a CalPIA contract with CDCR for cleaning health care facilities to include additional facilities and support additional custodian supervisors to change the ratio of supervisor to custodial staff.

In addition, the proposed 202223budget includes a modified version of the control section that was in the 202122 budget to also allow DOF to increase the amount budgeted for COVID19 response during 202223 subject to tenday JLBC notification. Accordingly, inmate custodians participating in the program receive the training necessary to properly clean health care facilities and obtain a health care facility cleaning certification. 3795/7515.)
