AI Summary
This bill aims to promote family relationships during incarceration by providing training for correctional officers. It requires all guards, corrections officers, and employees of correctional institutions to attend a training session and receive educational information on the importance of ongoing visitation for reducing recidivism (repeat offenses), increasing successful reentry into society, and maintaining respectful conduct towards family members and the public who visit incarcerated individuals. The training materials will be developed in consultation with various legal and community organizations and submitted to legislative committees for review before implementation.
