About this file
This is an Affirmation of Understanding document issued by the County of Solano Sheriff's Office that establishes conduct standards for employees, volunteers, and contract workers assigned to detention facilities. The document outlines mandatory behavioral expectations for all personnel working with inmates, including requirements to respect inmate dignity, maintain professional conduct, ensure inmate safety and humane treatment, and immediately report to supervisors any inappropriate inmate contact attempts or complaints. Personnel are required to notify facility commanders when close associates become incarcerated and must refrain from any conduct that could develop emotional relationships with inmates or facilitate unauthorized exchanges of items, money, or information.
The affirmation explicitly prohibits multiple categories of conduct including prejudging inmates, delivering unauthorized messages, discussing confidential departmental matters where inmates can overhear, criticizing the Sheriff's Office in front of inmates, engaging in personal business discussions with inmates, and conducting any financial or material transactions with inmates including loans, borrowing, selling, purchasing, or accepting gifts. Personnel must obtain documented approval from the Facility Commander before depositing money on behalf of any inmate relative or significant other. All staff must sign the affirmation indicating they have read, discussed, and agree to comply with these conduct standards as a condition of employment or contracted service with the Solano County Sheriff's Office.
