Inmate Services

Summary

The bill requires that money earned from inmate canteens, vending machines, phone commissions and maintenance‑deduction fees at contractor‑operated prisons be placed in a new Inmate Welfare Trust Fund. After legislative appropriation, the fund can only be spent on programs that help inmates re‑enter society and on environmental health improvements to the facilities. It applies to all privately run correctional institutions in Florida.
