Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a) Security
				  Threat Groups (STG) jeopardize public safety, as they promote violence, drug
				  trafficking, extortion, and create substantial risks in prisons, jails and local
				  communities. STG management within prisons requires a comprehensive management
				  strategy that includes prevention, interdiction and rehabilitation. It is the policy
				  of the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) to ensure that
				  its employees and inmates are able to work and live without threat of intimidation,
				  injury, and/or death.
(b) CDCR has zero
				  tolerance for any STG behavior within its institutions. The STG Identification,
				  Prevention, and Management Policy, as referenced in section
				  3378, recognizes that STG groups and
				  STG group-like behavior pose a significant risk to the safety, security, and orderly
				  operation of its institutions.
(c)
				  Inmates and parolees shall not knowingly promote, further or assist any STG as
				  defined in section
				  3000.
(d) For the purpose of specific STG participant
				  identification, the department categorizes STGs into the levels STG-I or STG-II as
				  defined in section
				  3000. Participation levels within an
				  STG are further categorized in status as Members, Associates, Suspects, and Dropouts
				  as defined in section
				  3000.
(e) Inmates shall not conspire, attempt, or
				  participate in behavior specifically identified in Section
				  3314(a)(3)(L) and
				  3314(a)(3)(M),
				  Administrative Rules Violations, STG Contraband and Behavior, or Section
				  3315(a)(3)(Z) and
				  3314(a)(3)(AA),
				  Serious Rules Violations, STG Violent, Disruptive, or Controlling
				  Behavior.
