What is the minimum duration for advancement during Phase I of the UDC's Restrictive Housing Program?

  1. 10 working days

  2. 45 days

  3. 3 working days

  4. 14 working days

The correct answer is: 3 working days

The minimum duration for advancement during Phase I of the UDC's Restrictive Housing Program is set at 3 working days. This timeframe has been determined to give inmates a structured environment where they can demonstrate compliance and engage positively with the rules and regulations of the program. The 3 working days allow for an effective assessment period, ensuring that staff can adequately evaluate behavior and readiness for progression in the program. While other durations mentioned may reflect varying phases or programs, the specific requirement for Phase I focuses on immediate assessment and encouragement of positive change, which is why the 3 working days is established as the minimum timeframe.
