Summary
The New Mexico Prison Rape Elimination Act sets a statewide standard that all prisons, jails, lockups, community confinement facilities, and juvenile facilities must have a written zero‑tolerance policy for sexual abuse and harassment. Each agency must also designate an upper‑level coordinator with authority to develop, implement, and monitor compliance. The goal is to protect inmates, detainees, and residents from sexual violence.
