Edward F. ReillyPUBLIC NOTICE
The Parole Commission will hold its next Public Forum on parole policies affecting District of Columbia prisoners on Saturday, March 12, 2005 at the Pennsylvania Avenue Baptist Church, 3000 Pennsylvania Avenue, S.E., Washington, D.C. The Public Forum, which will last from 10:00 until noon, is intended to acquaint the community with the policies and procedures affecting the parole and supervision of persons living in the District of Columbia who have been convicted of federal and District of Columbia crimes. Representatives of the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency of the District of Columbia and the Federal Bureau of Prisons will also participate in the Public Forum. Nancy Ware, the Executive Director of the Criminal Justice Coordinating Council for the District of Columbia, will once again moderate the Forum.
The previous Public Forum in September raised several thought-provoking issues. The Public Forums give members of the community a chance to find out how the Parole Commission carries out these responsibilities in cooperation with other agencies, such as the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency for the District of Columbia and the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Every effort is made to answer all questions directed to the Commission, and answers to questions from all of the Forums that do not concern a specific individual are posted on the Commission's webpage (www.usdoj.gov/uspc). The United States Parole Commission strongly encourages anyone with an interest in the Commission's activities to attend the Forum.
