The Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) creates legal and financial liability for correctional facilities that fail to comply with its standards for preventing, detecting, and responding to sexual abuse and harassment. Failure to comply can result in reduced federal funding and significant civil liability for the agency. PREA compliance is mandatory for facilities, and its standards create specific legal obligations for agencies, their staff, and contractors.
Hopkins & Huebner, P.C., will join us to discuss PREA and how correctional facilities should address PREA requirements.
