About this file
The document is a Contract Rider Ensuring Compliance with the Prison Rape Elimination Act (28 C.F.R. 115) between the Suffolk County Sheriff's Department (SCSD) and the Contractor. The rider outlines the SCSD's zero tolerance policy toward all forms of sexual abuse and sexual harassment and the Contractor's obligation to comply with this policy. It defines the types of sexual abuse and sexual harassment prohibited, including repeated unwelcome sexual advances, verbal comments, and voyeurism by staff. The SCSD policy requires all volunteers and contractors who have contact with residents to be informed of their responsibilities under the agency's sexual abuse and sexual harassment prevention, detection, and response policies and procedures.
The document does not provide details about a state and local contract opportunity. It appears to be a standard contract rider focused on compliance with the Prison Rape Elimination Act that would be included as part of a larger contract between the SCSD and a Contractor.
