Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Day Reporting Center (DRC)?
  • The BOP contracts with day reporting centers (DRCs) to provide assistance to clients who are nearing release and will be confined to their home address.
  • DRCs provide a safe, structured, supervised environment, as well as employment counseling, job placement, financial management assistance, and other programs and services.
  • DRCs have an obligation to provide offenders with an opportunity to acquire the necessary skills for self-improvement, and to practice law-abiding behavior upon release.
  • DRCs are not jails or prisons. Clients are monitored and must maintain pre-arranged and approved schedules, which include working outside of their homes.
Where do your clients come from?
  • The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) and U.S. Courts refer all clients to the day reporting center (DRC).
  • Clients are placed in a DRC that is closest to their release address.

Types of clients at a Day Reporting Center (DRC)
The DRC will accept all female and male federal clients. All clients include any federally prosecuted offense, including sexually related offenses. All sex offenders and BOP identified “public safety factors” are placed on GPS monitoring upon arrival from the institution they are coming from.

The facility and staff closely monitor each client with smart device technology 24/7 365. Our client monitoring system allows the ability of programmed inclusion and exclusion zones for each client. In addition, it allows random accountability checks which are verified biometrically (face / voice / fingerprint) as well as the ability to do instant accountability checks.

An accountability check is a practice that keeps the client on a specific and regimented schedule each day they’re in the program. Any deviation from locations allowed, based on the times on their schedule immediately notifies not only the program member, but the facility, as well as administration, allowing the reentry center to take appropriate action when needed.

Where do federal clients come from, and why?
Clients are returned to their release address, or they are returned to their sentencing district. A sentencing district is where they were charged and adjudicated. This means that this was a citizen of the community prior to their incarceration in a federal prison.
What is a DRC and what is the program?
A DRC provides programs that help clients rebuild their ties to the community and reduces the likelihood that they will recidivate. The three main programming focuses for a reentry center are around family, employment, and each client’s treatments needs. Treatment generally is focused around emotional, mental health, and substance abuse concerns.
Safety and Accountability
  • The facility is staffed with a well-trained team, who are monitoring clients 24/7, 365.
  • Clients are accounted for using several different methods approved by the BOP.
  • GPS Monitoring and Client Accountability Devices

 
Central Missouri Reentry will implement state-of-the-art technology, with key benefits that include:

  • 24/7 supervision and accountability to the client in and outside of facility or their home
  • Biometric identification and accountability (Face / Voice / Fingerprint). Staff approved regimented schedule is input daily, and the client is held accountable to where and when based off schedule input.
  • Any deviation from the schedule alerts not only the client, but facility staff and administration as well. When schedule deviation takes place (inclusion and exclusion zones), the facility takes immediate action to resolve the matter.
  • Devices are tethered to each individual and there is instant notification to the facility and staff when separation occurs.

 
Staff is active in the field daily in following manner:

  • Home visits are initially and randomly performed by DRC staff on all clients.
  • Upon a client finding gainful employment, staff will make an initial visit and introduction with employer, as well random monthly contacts, and visits to ensure accountability to employer and schedule.
  • When clients are using community providers for programming, staff will validate these visits regularly and randomly.
