Bill overview
This bill directs the Nevada Department of Corrections to establish vocational farm programs in its facilities and to engage registered dietitians to improve food services for offenders. It mandates a comprehensive, one-year study of current food services, requiring the Department to publish the findings on its website and limiting the terms of food service contract renewals to a maximum of two years. The bill also aims to gather data for future contracting decisions and improve the nutritional quality of food provided to inmates.
