I agree and understand that the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) is a federal law that prohibits and seeks to eliminate sexual

assaults and sexual misconduct in SCDC correctional institutions. Further that SCDC has a zero tolerance for sexual assault or abuse

of any person or sexual relationships between staff, volunteers, and offenders. I have also been informed of how to report such

incidents.

As a Registered Volunteer, I may learn personal and confidential information about inmates in the SCDC. I agree that any such

information will not be disclosed without the written consent of both the involved inmate and the affected staff member. I understand

that a violation of this pledge will result in my removal as a volunteer.

I release the SCDC, its agents, and employees from any liability from my request to participate in this volunteer activity. I make this

request on my own without coercion or encouragement from any employee of the SCDC.
