ASSEMBLY, No. 4785

 

with Assembly Floor Amendments

(Proposed by Assemblywoman QUIJANO)

 

ADOPTED: MAY 20, 2021


 

      This bill expands the scope of reentry services and benefits currently available to inmates released from incarceration in State and county correctional facilities. Under the bill, State and county correctional facilities would be required to provide certain prescriptions to an inmate prior to release.

      These Assembly amendments remove language that require the provision of a 90-day supply of suboxone and instead requires a three-month supply of long-acting injectables.
