DEFINITIONS AND FORMULAS USED TO PRODUCE THE
ANNUAL ESCAPE REPORT
The Annual Escape Report presents the number of escapes from California Department of
Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) Adult Institutions, Camps, Community Correctional
Centers, State Hospitals, Off Reservation Work Crew Assignments and Temporary Community
Releases. Escapes that occur while the offender is outside of CDCR custody (out to court,
hospital, etc.) are not included in this report.

ADP:

The Average Daily Population per day for the adult institution
and camp population.

Community Correctional
Centers:

County, state and private facilities in local communities
administered by or under contract with CDCR to house
inmates in community correctional facilities, work furloughs,
prisoner mother programs or parole violators returned to local
jails.

Escape Rates:
Rate of Escapes From
Institutions and Camps

= (Number of Escapes) X 100
(ADP)

Rate of Escapes From
Community Correctional Centers

Off Reservation Work
Crew Assignment:

Population at Risk:

Temporary Community
Release:

= (Number of Escapes) X 100
(Population at Risk)

Offenders away from the institution under CDCR custody,
working on a maintenance crew or disaster relief team.

Offenders in a population on January 1 of any given year, plus
offenders entering the population during the year. This is used
instead of the ADP in calculating the Community Correctional
Center escape rates. This is due to the more diverse program
types, population and typically shorter length of stay.

Temporary location for offenders away from adult institution for
less than 72 hours (upon CDCR approval).
