Prison Yard Politics Are No Joke
Our receptionists get calls from loved ones all the time who worry about what their loved one needs to do once they hit a federal prison yard.
Who should they run with? Where should they spend their time? Where should they eat? What are the do’s and don’ts in that situation? How should they deal with the politics of their new environment?
Most inmates won’t have access to Federal Prison Tips content to get their answers in real time – and none will who aren’t willing to use a contraband phone and risk getting severely disciplined.
There is a book we often recommend to answer all of these questions. They’re great reads before entering the federal prison system, or early in the stay. That is Prison Politics 101: Mastering the Rules of Survival by Larry J. Levine.
This book covers who to look out for, what to do, who to talk to, and how to move around in detail across 400 pages. You can find it on Amazon.
