 State of California Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation Strategic Plan
The California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR)
created a new strategic plan to improve public safety and services
on behalf of state tax payers. The CDCR's organization, which was
established July 1, 2005, (pursuant to Senate Bill 737, Statutes of 2005),
has been transformed to begin providing improved institution
security, rehabilitative services, and enhanced staff and public
safety.
The strategic plan emphasizes partnership and collaboration with
private entities to provide needed services. Goal seven, on page 29,
discusses health care delivery goals. The goal states "Develop and
implement a service delivery system to provide accessible, quality,
and cost-effective health care across all programs by December
2012." This main goal has two objectives, with implementation
milestones that are charted on a timeline:
- Develop and implement a
comprehensive performance management system to monitor the program
performance of each program (medical, dental, mental health) and
identify opportunities for improvement by December 2008
- Develop and implement a
comprehensive evidence-based program and practice standards in
priority areas by December 2009
