D. PURPOSE
The purpose of this standard operating procedure (SOP) is to identify requirements for
providing limited funding support to IDOC residents and Probation and Parole clients so they
might gain housing and other transitional services that are necessary to promote stability in
the community. Transitional funding is for residents and supervised clients who have no
means of financial support to assist in their reintegration into the community.
E. RESPONSIBILITY
Reentry Manager
The Reentry Manager is responsible to oversee transition funding and compliance with
this SOP.
Facility Heads and District Managers
Facility Heads and District Managers are responsible for implementing this SOP and
ensuring that staff members practice these procedures.
F. DEFINITIONS
None
G. STANDARD PROCEDURES
1. Introduction
Transition funding is a temporary and short-term solution for IDOC residents or clients who
lack resources for housing, transportation, birth certificates, interstate compact application
fee, or any combination of these transitional services.
While the IDOC may temporarily provide this type of funding, residents and clients should be
directed to access appropriate long-term housing resources and only utilize transition
funding as the last option.
All funding approvals are contingent on budget appropriations and allowable expenses.
2. Funding Eligibility
Residents and clients may be eligible to receive funding for housing, transportation, birth
certificate fees, interstate compact application fees, or any combination of these transitional
services when the following funding criteria is met:
a. All other alternative housing options and resources have been exhausted and;
b. The resident or client lacks the financial resources to pay out-of-pocket.
c. For the purpose of this SOP, alternative housing options and resources means:
Control Number:

Idaho Department of Correction
i. Living accommodations
ii. Financial support, or community support obtained via family members and
friends
iii. Emergency shelter, Medicaid, Social Security, or Health and Welfare funding
d. TTF funding requests that are submitted due to the resident’s or client’s inability to gain
employment due to a CIS-documented medical or mental health issue will automatically
be eligible for TTF funds.
e. Riders:
i. Cannot have more than $300.00 total credited to their resident bank account
during the last six months of incarceration.
ii. Must have an estimated programing completion date.
f. Parole Violators:
i. Cannot have more than $300.00 total credited to their resident bank account
during the last six months of incarceration.
ii. If they are currently in county jail and have no means of financial support or
outside resources that can contribute towards their housing or transitional
services (as verified by the probation and parole officer), they will meet funding
criteria.
g. Termers:
i. Cannot have more than $700.00 total credited to their resident bank account
during the last twelve months of incarceration.
ii. Must have a tentative parole date.
iii. Funding for housing may or may not be available for residents who satisfy their
sentence. For residents who satisfy their sentence, housing will be considered on
a case-by-case basis.
h. Clients:
i. Must be unemployed or there must be extenuating circumstances such as an
illness, employment layoff, or other crucial reason that prevents them from paying
rent or other transitional services.
ii. Must be at risk of becoming homeless.
iii. Must not have utilized more than two 30-day housing authorizations in a 12-
month period. The 12-month period will go back as far as the date released from
prison when that release occurred within the same 12-month period.
iv. Clients who were deemed ineligible for TTF funding while incarcerated will not
be eligible for TTF funding while on supervision until 30 calendar days after their
official release date. They must follow their approved release plan, or the
Probation and Parole Officer must seek alternative housing options and
resources as defined above in this section.

v. If a client self-paid for 30 days of housing prior to their Probation and Parole
Officer requesting 30 days funding by IDOC, the Probation and Parole Officer
needs to phone the provider to obtain the client’s self-paid ‘rent end date’ and
provide that date in the TTF funding request. This ensures that rent is not double
paid and the client receives their full 30 day TTF-funded stay.
vi. Clients must not be directed to move into a transitional house without the
Probation and Parole Officer first obtaining funding approval from TTF.
3. Funding Exceptions
a. TTF Coordinator
i. The TTF Coordinator or designee can make exceptions up to $100.00 over the
funding eligibility totals described in section 2 of this SOP.
ii. When considering whether the resident will be responsible for self-paying a
portion of their transitional funding, the TTF Coordinator or designee will
determine how much over the credited amount described in section 2 of this SOP
(as applicable) the incarcerated resident’s bank account shows.
For example, if the resident is a parole violator and has had $500 total credited to
their resident bank account during the last six months of incarceration, then they
would be $200 over the allowable $300 limit, assuming they have not paid any
court-ordered obligations.
iii. Once it is determined how much the resident is over the allowable limit, the TTF
Coordinator or designee will determine what the individual will self-pay:
A. For people who are over the threshold but have less than 1/2 of what is
being requested, IDOC pays the total plus 1.
B. For people who are over by an amount that’s equal to 1/2 of what is
requested, the resident pays half.
b. Institutional Program Manager or District Manager
i. Upon receiving a funding denial from the TTF Coordinator or designee,
Institutional Case Managers and Probation and Parole Officers may staff the
decision with their Institutional Program Manager or District Manager, as
applicable.
ii. If the Institutional Program Manager or District Manager feel that the funding
decision should be reconsidered based on the circumstances surrounding that
individual’s case, then the Institutional Program Manager or District Manager may
email the Reentry Manager or designee the facts and reasons why the additional
exception should be granted.
iii. The Reentry Manager or designee has the authority to approve or deny the
additional exception based on the facts received.
4. Use of Funds
a. Housing
Control Number:
607.26.01.013
Version:
5.0
Title:
Transition Funding Program
Page Number:

Idaho Department of Correction
i. If approved, housing costs will be funded for 30 days at a time, up to a maximum
of 60 days total.
ii. It is the intent of the TTF program that potential recipients become self-
supporting as quickly as possible, so an additional 30 days of funding is not a
guarantee and staff must apply for each 30 day period separately.
iii. The initial funding amount approved will be for the minimum amount necessary to
establish initial residency. Staff must always consider a housing option at the tier
2 (preferred) or tier 3 (premium) rate before tier 1 (minimum) when submitting
funding requests for housing.
iv. All IDOC-approved housing providers will be tiered at a tier 1 (minimum
standard), tier 2 (preferred standard), or tier 3 (premium standard) no later than
January 2, 2022.
v. Until an approved provider is tiered, the provider will continue to receive their
current housing rates, unless they opt-out of being a provider prior to January 2,
2022.
vi. A registered sex offender can receive approval for an additional 30 days of
housing (a total of 90 days) if there are extenuating circumstances such as an
illness, employment layoff, or other reason deemed crucial by the district
manager or designee prior to submitting the TTF funding request.
b. Transportation to Supervising District
i. Funding will be available to cover transportation expenses from prison to a
resident’s supervising district.
ii. Staff must always consider available lower cost transportation options first when
submitting funding requests for transportation.
c. Birth Certificate Fees
i. Transition funding may be used for a birth certificate application processing fee.
ii. The birth certificate fee (when approved for funding) can only be funded once
during the individuals’ entire period of incarceration or supervision.
d. Interstate Compact Application Fee
i. Transitional funding may be approved for the interstate compact application
processing fee.
ii. There must be a reentry plan to an out-of-state location to ensure successful
reentry.
iii. The interstate compact application processing fee may be funded up to two times
only; this allows for a second chance at an interstate transfer in the event the first
option falls through.
5. Funding Priority
a. The transitional funding budget is a finite resource. Based on annual budget constraints,
priorities are set to ensure adequate funding is available to meet needs intended under
Control Number:
607.26.01.013
Version:
5.0
Title:
Transition Funding Program
Page Number:

Idaho Department of Correction
this policy. TTF funding requests are processed and considered daily in the following
priority:
i. Supervised probationers and parolees (housing and interstate compact
application fees)
ii. Riders and parole violators (housing, transportation, and interstate compact
application fees)
iii. Termers (housing, transportation, and interstate compact application fees)
iv. Birth certificate fees
v. Termers who are satisfying their sentence. Housing will be considered on a case-
by-case basis; all other services available to termers will have priority.
6. Funding Request and Approval Process
a. Institutional Case Managers must review a resident’s bank account and deduct from the
credited balance any payments made for court-ordered obligations that were made
during the six-month or twelve-month period (as described in section 2 of this SOP)
before submitting a funding request form. The remaining balance will be the amount TTF
will consider for funding eligibility purposes.
b. Institutional Case Managers must submit funding request forms no earlier than five
weeks or no less than two weeks prior to the resident’s projected release date.
c. Unless the provider informs the Institutional Case Manager that a bed is no longer
available for the resident, Institutional Case Managers must not request any changes to
an already approved authorization if less than two weeks remain before the resident’s
projected release date. The Reentry Manager may allow an exception if contacted by the
Program Manager.
d. Probation and Parole Officers may submit funding requests on an as needed basis, but
no earlier than one week prior to the initial projected move-in date or second month’s
rent start date.
e. Whether an Institutional Case Manager or Probation and Parole Officer, the most recent
funding decision will always supersede the previous funding decision and the previous
funding decision will be null and void; therefore, requiring a new funding request to be
submitted should funding continues to be pursued.

status, and request type.
b. The status types are standardized as follows:
i. Rider – Housing request for residents releasing to probation from an IDOC
facility.
ii. Termer – Housing request for residents releasing to parole (to include parole
violators) from an IDOC facility.
iii. PP – Housing request for clients supervised in the district by the Probation
and Parole Office, to include those incarcerated in a county jail.
iv. FTRD – Housing request for residents releasing to the community on their
full-term release date (FTRD).
c. The request types are standardized as follows:
