About this file

This is an application form for facility site visit access issued by the Minnesota Department of Corrections (DOC) in conjunction with the Incarcerated Person Communication Services (IPCS) solicitation. The form is completed by non-DOC personnel seeking to visit Minnesota correctional facilities for purposes related to the IPCS contract opportunity. Applicants must be at least 18 years old for adult facilities and 21 years old for juvenile facilities, and must complete the application, pass a background check, and receive orientation before beginning duties. This process repeats annually. All applicants must present valid photo identification at each facility admission and are subject to metal detection screening, with accommodations for documented medical conditions such as pacemakers. The application covers all eleven Minnesota DOC facilities, including MCF-Faribault, MCF-Lino Lakes, MCF-Moose Lake, MCF-Oak Park Heights, MCF-Red Wing, MCF-Rush City, MCF-Shakopee, MCF-St. Cloud, MCF-Stillwater, MCF-Willow River, and MCF-Togo, as well as the Central Office in St. Paul.

The application requires comprehensive personal information, criminal history disclosure, and attestation regarding Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA) compliance standards, specifically addressing any history of sexual abuse or coercion. Applicants must disclose prior felony convictions, pending charges, probation or parole status, and any communication or relationships with offenders at DOC facilities. The form includes authorization for the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension to release criminal history information and predatory offender registry data, valid for twelve months from the signature date. Completed applications must be returned to Janeen Oien at Janeen.Oien@state.mn.us and are subject to official background checks including BCA/QWI review, visiting list verification, and ID validation. A successful application does not guarantee facility access, and a Mantoux tuberculosis test may be required. This application is the initial gate-keeping mechanism for vendors and contractors seeking to provide services at Minnesota DOC facilities under the IPCS initiative.

Prison Rape Elimination Act

(Per PREA 28 C.F.R Part 115.17)

Have you engaged in sexual abuse in a prison, jail, lockup, community confinement facility, juvenile facility, or other institution; or been convicted of engaging or attempting to engage in sexual activity in the community facilitated by force, overt or implied threats of force, or coercion, or if the victim did not consent or was unable to consent or refuse; or has been civilly or administratively adjudicated to have engaged in the activities described previously?
