The names of individuals with a recommendation to participate in offender programming are maintained on a statewide tracking/waiting list ordered by potential earliest release date (ERD). When an individual's name nears the top of the list, he is placed in a group when a new group starts. He may be transferred to a different facility to get group or remain at the current facility. Every effort is made to get individuals into group as soon as possible so that they might finish prior to their ERD. Completion of group does not guarantee positive Parole Board action. Please call (517) 373-0287 for additional information.
