Honor Status in Kentucky Prisons

Restore Friday night visits for honor status inmates at Kentucky State Reformatory.

Why is this important?

Kentucky's prisons are full and costing taxpayers an enormous amount of money. One of the ways of rehabilitating inmates and improving the rates of successful transition from inmate to productive citizen is good programs within the prison.

The Night Visit Program is a special incentive program designed to promote positive behavior and strengthen social ties. The program allows for participation by Honor Dormitory, Firehouse, and any inmate meeting the criteria for honor housing.The visits are in the visiting area from 6:30 to 8:30 on Fridays.

These visits have been ended at Kentucky State Reformatory.
