INTAKE CENTER OVERVIEW
The ODOC Intake & Assessment Center at CCCF is a short-term placement facility for individuals entering the Oregon Department of Corrections. All offenders sentenced to the state’s correctional system go through the intake process, with the exception of those sentenced to death row.
Inmates on intake status will have NO access to canteen, personal visits, work or program assignments. You will be involved in a concentrated process designed to:
- Provide you with information that will prepare you for your incarceration,
- Target and prioritize, in a case plan , your criminal “risk factors” so that we can provide
Why am I here and what will be expected of me?
- you with opportunities, as available, to address those needs, and
- Assist you, from the day you arrive, in acquiring skills for successful re-entry into the community.
REMEMBER, your full participation in the assessment process is important to your future success. While you are here you are expected to:
- Understand and follow the rules of prohibited conduct (located in your Intake Packet ).
- Do what staff instruct you to do.
- Speak and act respectfully to ALL other inmates and staff.
- Take part fully in all intake and assessment activities.
- Read the information located in your Intake Packet and Intake Handbook.
- Read the bulletin board in your unit daily for call-outs and new information.
EXTRADITIONS / ESCAPE MORRISSEY
If you violated your post-prison supervision and were picked up in another state, you are considered an

county when they will come and pick you up. You could be here at CCCF for a total of 30 days or more. Thank you for your patience with the process.
You will receive no paperwork regarding your hearing or sanction while you are here at CCCF. If you want copies, you may request them from your parole officer when you arrive at the county jail. You may also ask for the results of your hearing when you arrive at the county. We are not informed of your final sanction/revocation here at CCCF.
Sanction is a sentence given to you for your violation. When you receive a sanction, your sentence of calculated supervision time keeps running. Revocation is a sentence given to you for your violation. However your sanction time stops and is added on after you serve your sentence, thus more time on post prison supervision PPS. Anytime you fail to report to your Parole Officer/PPS or leave the state, your calculated post prison supervision stops and a warrant is issued. Minimum sanction for an Extradition/ Escape Morrissey is 60 days.
If you do not have any new allegations of criminal conduct, the maximum sanction you may receive is 90 days jail (which is called a Technical Violation.) If you have new allegations of criminal charges you may receive up to 180 days (this is called a Criminal Violation.) Any time spent in another correctional facility outside this state will not be credited towards the sanction you will be receiving with the Parole Board.
OLD GUIDELINES If you have a record of crimes committed prior to November 1, 1989, you were sentenced under “old guidelines.” If you fall under the old guidelines and you are here as a result of a parole violation (no new charges), the parole board is the only one who can adjudicate your parole violation. As a result, you are placed in ODOC custody while you await your future disposition hearing and you WILL participate in the complete intake & assessment process, including testing, etc. However, YOU WILL NOT STAY AT CCCF AWAITING YOUR FUTURE DISPOSITION HEARING. Once you have completed the intake process, you will be transferred to another ODOC facility where your hearing will take place.
can affect your success then. While you are expected to fully participate in your assessment, this facility also upholds all of the department’s rules on prohibited conduct. You are responsible for reading, understanding and following the Rules of Prohibited Conduct handout included in your intake packet. Any misconduct on your part can impact you in a number of ways, including but not limited to:
- Increased time in-cell
- Loss of “earned time”
- Change in release date
- Change in custody level
- Monetary fine
- Placement in segregation
If you do not obey the rules during your stay here, you will be held accountable. If your behavior rises to the level of a major misconduct , you will be placed in a temporary holding cell where you will remain until you have completed the intake process. If you receive a Disciplinary Report (DR) for your behavior, you may also be held here until you have your hearing.
YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR ASSIGNED CELL. Once you are assigned to a cell, you are advised to check it out for
any damage, graffiti or vandalized areas. If you find any of the above, you will need to notify your unit officer as soon as possible. Unit staff will randomly check the cells and damage to your cell will be documented. You will be held responsible for any new, undocumented damage. If you have any questions regarding these issues, please address them to your unit officer.

Loitering outside another inmate’s cell during line movement or at any other time is prohibited. You may be written up for being in an “unauthorized area.”
INMATE COMMUNICATION
Anytime you have a question, you should first attempt to get an answer face-to-face from staff. If you are unable to get an answer, you can fill out and send in a written inmate communication form, sometimes referred to as a “kyte.” These forms are available on your unit.
There are several things to remember when filling out an inmate communication form:
- INCLUDE your name, SID, bunk assignment and housing unit on both sides of the form.
How can I get my questions answered?
- State your question as clearly as possible.
- Write neatly.
- Be respectful.
- Do not send an inmate communication to more than one person, at the same time, addressing the same issue.
- Wait 3 to 5 days for a response.
- Save your answered inmate communication forms as a record.
You may use the list below to determine who best to send your inmate communication form to. Once you have completed the form, drop it in the “Kytes/Grievances” slot in the large green mailboxes on your unit. Your “kyte” may be directed to any of the following:
Legal Library: Need access to legal material or envelopes for required court and parole board filings. OISC Records: SID number requests and questions regarding sentence calculation and detainers. YOU ARE REQUIRED TO WAIT 30 DAYS from admission before sending a kyte to the Records office with questions regarding sentence calculation and detainers. Inmates on intake status will not be provided a copy of their facesheet.
related issues, which you have been unable to resolve with your unit officer or other security staff. Intake Operations Manager: Questions/concerns regarding inmate transfers or your case, which you have been unable to resolve with your counselor.
If you need to contact Health Services, you will need to sign up to see the triage nurse. The sign up sheet is posted on each unit, seven days a week. If you sign up to see the triage nurse, you are then required to attend triage line the following morning at the designated time for your housing unit. Triage line is run 7 days a week. To request a refill of your medication, please send an inmate communication to Health Services by placing your request in the “Health Services” slot in the large green mailboxes on your unit. This is also where you should place kytes addressing mental health issues.
INMATE IDENTIFICATION
Your “SID” number is your State Identification Number, usually seven or eight digits long. You will need this number for several reasons throughout your incarceration. It should be included on ALL inmate communication forms, incoming
What’s my “SID” number and why do I need it?
mail, and most of the tests and forms that you will fill out during the assessment process.
Your SID number is located on the ID card you are issued while at CCCF. This card is to be worn on your shirt, in the area of your chest, with your photo facing outward. Staff will request it at various times throughout the intake process and it is important that you have it available. If you have not received your ID card within a few days after arriving at CCCF, let your unit officer know.
If you need to obtain a replacement ID card, you will need to submit an inmate communication form to the “ R&D Sergeant/ID Replacement .” You should explain why you need a new one (lost, wrong information on card, cracked, broken, etc.). Have your unit officer verify your need for a new card by having he/she sign off on your inmate communication form. If it is determined that this facility should pay for a replacement, your request will be forwarded to the records office and a new one will be issued. If it is determined that you are responsible to pay for its replacement, you must fill out and submit a CD28 in the amount of five dollars. INTENTIONALLY DAMAGING OR DESTROYING YOUR ID CARD WILL RESULT IN APPROPRIATE DISCIPLINARY ACTION.
