State prison: services upon release.
Summary
Existing law requires the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation and the Department of Motor Vehicles to ensure that all eligible inmates, as defined, released from a state prison have a valid identification card. Existing law also requires the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to assist a person who is exonerated as to a conviction for which the person is serving a state prison sentence at the time of exoneration with access to specified state and federal services, including transitional services and enrollment in the Medi-Cal medical benefits program. This bill would require the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation to provide each inmate with a copy of the inmate's social security card and birth certificate upon release from a state prison.
