The ACP is overseen by the California Department of Corrections and consists of six community-based programs that supervise both pre-sentenced and sentenced offenders, prioritizing public safety and cost-effective alternatives to incarceration. Working in collaboration with the Department's Work Release Center, located at 1515 S St, Rm 344 N Sacramento, CA, and other criminal justice agencies, the division oversees thousands of offenders in the community.

The Alternative Custody Program (ACP) is a voluntary initiative designed for eligible incarcerated individuals, allowing them to serve up to the last 12 months of their sentence in the community instead of state prison. Participants may reside in a private residence, transitional care facility, or a residential drug or treatment program.

Under the jurisdiction of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR), ACP participants are electronically monitored and supervised by parole agents while in the community. Each day in the ACP equates to one day of incarceration credit in a state prison, ensuring participants receive appropriate credit for time served.

The consideration process for ACP involves several steps:

1. Preliminary assessment of proposed residence or program.
2. Identification of available community resources.
3. Development of an Individualized Treatment and Rehabilitation Plan (ITRP).
4. Thorough review of criminal history and performance under probation and/or parole supervision.
5. Institutional Classification Committee (ICC) review chaired by the Warden or designee.
6. Final assessment of residence or program to ensure suitability.

Upon approval, ACP participants must adhere to their ITRP and conditions set by their Case Manager (Parole Agent). Expectations include maintaining employment, pursuing education, and engaging in rehabilitation activities such as outpatient treatment and self-help classes. These efforts aim to address addiction issues and develop skills necessary for successful reintegration into society.

Ultimately, the ACP offers participants a structured pathway to re-enter society as productive citizens while providing necessary supervision and guidance to support their rehabilitation journey.
