ISAP Location

Terminations There have been 1,036 terminations (Inactive ISAP participants) since program inception. There have been 314 or 31% removed from the country, verified voluntary departure or relief granted (type A and B) terminations. These are considered successful ISAP terminations and once they are closed in DACS become successful completions overall. BI continues to work closely with DRO to help improve compliance with final orders and improve the rate of successful completions. In a continued attempt to verify self-departures, when possible, a Self Addressed Stamped Envelope (SASE), with a second copy of the G-146, are provided to the participant prior to departure. Since this inception, three of those envelopes were returned to the Kansas City ISAP Office and one to the Philadelphia ISAP Office, bearing the official stamp and signature of DHS personnel indicating that the alien did, in fact, depart the United States. Additionally, in Kansas City the COTR has added a section on the G-146 that includes the DRO fax# and e-mail with a request to the consulate/embassy to fax completed forms or scan and send. The St. Paul Program Manager and one case specialist were issued security badges to the security area of the Minneapolis Airport in order to verify participant departures. Staff have a non-law enforcement role and simply witness the participant board the airplane for international flights. In San Francisco, staff report progress with travel documents to their COTR on a weekly basis. This includes copies of all travel document applications, follow up letters submitted by participants, and certified letter receipts. The number of terminations “unable to locate” (types C and D) is 225 or 22%. These terminations are of the highest concern. Each has an “unauthorized absence report” filed and if appropriate, DRO headquarters gives these names to the fugitive operations unit. Staff continues to keep all contact information, updated in AccuTrax to assists DRO in locating participants at a higher rate. The number of terminations due to violating the program rules or being rearrested (type E and F) is 69 or 6%. Participants terminated as “no longer required to participate in ISAP”, (type G) is 191 or 18%. The number of participants that are being held for removal or pending verification that they self-deported or left under voluntary departure (type H and I) are 170 or 16%. There have been 67 (6%) participants arrested by local law enforcement (type J) and 4 terminated as other (type K). ICE.000451.09-1368

Two participants failed to appear for their final hearings in Miami. One traveled by mass transit and the train broke down. The participant brought copies of his train and bus ticket and his attorney is filing a motion to reopen. The second participant states that she was told by her attorney’s office not to appear but does acknowledge that she was told by her ISAP Case Specialist that she should appear.

Portland ISAP has one new case specialist being trained in the month of October. Her security clearance is pending. Meetings were held with the training department this month to determine upcoming case specialist refresher trainings, ensure contract requirements for training are in place for this year and to identify any other training needs from the field. Staff are finalizing data entry for all ISAP referrals program to date in order to begin running the new AccuTrax reports that were put into production last month.

Contract Compliance Annual Report The Performance Work Statement required that BI prepare a report in the style of a “Lessons Learned” document. A draft was submitted to DRO and approval to finalize the report was received on September 16, 2005. The completed document was distributed on September 26, 2005. While the report provides much more information than the contract required, we believe that this first year of the pilot program is an important time to show the outcomes and success DRO has experienced with ISAP. The report itself is very comprehensive. It has an overview of the program as well as an outline of events leading up to the implementation of ISAP. There is an outcomes section that shows very promising first year results in appearance rates at final order hearings as well as compliance with final orders. Data for compliance with final hearings and final orders was received from DACS. The lessons learned section includes input from local FODS and COTR’s and is a valuable learning piece for the program. Office Closure Due to the threat posed by Hurricane Rita, the Miami ISAP was closed on Tuesday 9/20/05. In advance of this office closing, all participants due to report were contacted and advised of their new reporting date. ISAP staff remained available via the emergency contact number and cell phones. The DRO FOD and COTR were notified and consulted during the process. Grievance There was one grievance submitted during the month of September from a St. Paul participant. The participant had two mains concerns: first, he did not want to allocate time in his weekly schedule at home during hours that allowed ISAP staff to conduct unscheduled home visits and second he requested a new Case Specialist. The Program Manager responded to the grievance and the Participant and his lawyer approached the manager to discuss the resolution. Local DRO personnel were notified of all details of the grievance.

Miami Expansion BI presented a price proposal on September 23, 2004 in response to a request to expand the Miami population to 400 participants. The proposal was amended on the 26th of October, the 11th of November and the 10th of March. BI met via teleconference on September 19 with Carol Amano and staff to go over the Miami price proposal. More details were requested and these were submitted on September 20, 2005. The proposal is pending approval at this time.

Community Liaison The Baltimore Program Manager, Stacie Moore, was invited to present an overview of the ISAP program at the quarterly Baltimore Citizenship and Immigration Services (CIS) meeting. Stacie Moore completed a 20-minute overview of the ISAP program. The discussion covered details of the phase system and goals of the program. The audience included several NGO’s and the presentation highlighted utilization of local community resources used to assist the ISAP participants. ICE.000454.09-1368

Staff members continue to assess participants for appropriate services while also developing local relationships and referral sources for participants. Baltimore Case Specialist David Jones developed a map to distribute to ISAP participants in English and Spanish. ISAP also worked with a participant who was involved in a domestic violence situation. ISAP referred the participant to several different organizations to assist her. World Relief, The Adobe Project, Central Booking and the House of Ruth were all utilized to provide the participant with information for her immigration case, living arrangements, a protective order, and the status of her abuser. The participant is now stabilized with safe housing arrangements, a protective order and is moving forward with her immigration case.

Media There were no media contacts during the month of September.

Comments The ISAP offices continue to work in cooperation to share experiences, successes and help one another improve program quality and outcomes. This month two participants that absconded from Miami were believed to be in Philadelphia. The Miami Program Manager communicated with the Philadelphia Program Manager and the Philadelphia staff attempted home visits at the address given by the Participant’s sponsor in Miami. In a separate incident, a Baltimore participant has been ‘unable to locate’ from the ISAP program, but is scheduled to appear in a Miami court. The Miami staff has the court date and it is anticipated local DRO will be able to apprehend the participant. The scheduled meeting in Washington DC for August 26th was delayed due to priorities around the Border Strategy as well as assisting with Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. This meeting has not yet been rescheduled. The Annual Report was forwarded to Headquarters and it is anticipated the meeting to review the first year outcomes will be rescheduled for later this month.

BI trainer, Tammy Coon, traveled to the Portland office to train the new case specialist and while there also provided the remaining case specialists with refresher training to include AccuTrax, assessment, service plans, file maintenance and report writing. Philadelphia will be in the process of hiring one new case specialist with the growth in numbers and Miami is down one case specialist. There has been a delay in Miami’s process due to Hurricane Wilma. Several ISAP offices attended training on a new piece of technology. BI Inc now has a Group Home Monitoring Unit that can be used to track several participants living at the same address. ISAP has been able to do this in the past, but this new equipment simplifies the process and uses fewer pieces of equipment. The technology is available for use with a landline or a cellular unit. ISAP staff also attended an internal training regarding the 6-month internal audit process. Employees were reminded about the contract requirements that will be covered in the upcoming audit. The audit tool was reviewed and any questions were answered. ICE.000458.09-1368

The Kansas City Program Manager received additional training on the DACS system from the COTR, Paul Mitchell.

Contract Compliance Office Closure Hurricane Wilma affected the Miami ISAP office and the South Florida area. The office did not sustain any major storm damage but is still operating without electric power to date. The office was officially closed on October 24th and 25th. The remainder of the week was utilized to assess the hurricane aftermath and develop a plan for a return to operation. Face to face reports and home visits were suspended after consultation with the Miami DRO Field Office Director and an assessment of environmental hazards, such as availability of gasoline, access to roads, curfews imposed by county governments, and limited communication ability. Participants were contacted whenever possible and advised not to report until November 1, 2005. Efforts to contact all participants commenced on October 25. By November 4th, ISAP staff had either seen or spoken to all but 13 participants. Resumption of face-to-face and home visits began on November 1, 2005. Home visits are being focused on the hardest hit areas to make contact with participants in areas without telephone, cell phone and electricity who cannot be reached in other ways. ISAP staff continues to work to reestablish normal operations and programming, despite the remaining challenges. Pending Items Per contract requirements, updated Policy and Procedures (P&P) were submitted to DRO on August 2, 2005; feedback was received and updates were turned in on September 15, 2005. Once the manual is approved many of the items on the following chart will be completed as they have been integrated into the updated manual. The chart is an ongoing compilation of action items as a result of meetings with DRO November 2004, and February, April and May of 2005. Completed action items have been removed. Item

Miami Expansion Note: no update from last month BI presented a price proposal on September 23, 2004 in response to a request to expand the Miami population to 400 participants. The proposal was amended on the 26th of October, the 11th of November and the 10th of March. BI met via teleconference on September 19 with Carol Amano and staff to go over the Miami price proposal. More details were requested and these were submitted on September 20, 2005. The proposal is pending approval at this time.

Community Liaison The St. Paul Program Manager attended the NGO quarterly roundtable discussion on October 28th and conducted a briefing on community resource needs for the program participants. The information was well received and it is anticipated more referral resources will be available for Participants as a result. In Baltimore, ISAP was highlighted at the Quarterly AILA meeting in October. DRO COTR Todd Falvey gave an overview of the ISAP program to approximately 100 attorneys. ISAP Handbooks and brochures were available to the attorneys. The Program Manager’s contact information was also distributed should any of the AILA members desire more information about the program. In Portland, a participant with health issues was referred to the Old Town Clinic, a division of Central City Concern. The participant was provided with healthcare to address his issues and is doing well. Baltimore completely overhauled its bus system in October. New maps and information packets were available in the ISAP office to assist participants who utilize public transportation.

Media There were no media contacts during the month of October. There was an article in the Philadelphia Weekly on October 19, 2005 concerning the apprehension and deportation of an ISAP participant. The article detailed the immigration history of the individual with references to electronic monitoring and twice a month reporting, but there was no specific mention of ISAP.

Comments Meetings are scheduled in Washington DC for the week of November 7th. On November 8th various meetings with Congressional staffers and BI are anticipated to occur, providing an opportunity for education about the ISAP program. On November 9th a meeting is scheduled with DRO at their office to review the history, first year outcomes, and assess ongoing priorities for ISAP.

Terminations There have been 1,170 terminations (Inactive ISAP participants) since program inception. There have been 349 or 30% removed from the country, verified voluntary departure or relief granted (type A and B) terminations. These are considered successful ISAP terminations and once they are closed in DACS become successful completions overall. The number of terminations “unable to locate” (types C and D) is 250 or 22%. These terminations are of the highest concern. Each has an “unauthorized absence report” filed and if appropriate, DRO headquarters gives these names to the fugitive operations unit. Staff continues to keep all contact information, updated in AccuTrax, to assist DRO in locating participants. The number of terminations due to violating the program rules or being rearrested (type E and F) is 72 or 6%. Participants terminated as “no longer required to participate in ISAP”, (type G) is 198 or 17%. The number of participants that are being held for removal or pending verification that they self-deported or left under voluntary departure (type H and I) are 210 or 15%.

There were three missed hearings for the month of November. San Francisco had one missed hearing that resulted in an order of removal in absentia. It is believed the participant is living with his family in Canada. Miami had 51 total hearings during the month of November. Two resulted in final orders being issued in absentia, however we have maintained contact with the participants. One participant claims to have been in court but was told by the attorney to wait for him in the court lobby. He is currently back on the intensive phase of supervision with ISAP pending the outcome of attempts to reopen his case or execution of the existing order of removal. The other participant claims she missed due to the inability of public transportation after the hurricane. She has not yet filed to reopen her case and is also on the intensive phase.

San Francisco Program Manager, Fred Hamdun, attended full day training on human trafficking, presented by the East Bay Anti-Trafficking Task force and sponsored by the City of Oakland Police Department, U.S. Department of Justice BJA and Cross-Sector Solutions LLC. He will attend follow-up training in December. Should ISAP receive this type of participant, these trainings will assist in the specialized treatment and related issues they face.



Philadelphia staff received training for the new barcode scanning system for recording and documenting home visits. It is anticipated they will provide full training for ISAP once this new system is rolled out.

Contract Compliance DRO Meeting Bruce Thacher and Ann Schlarb met with DRO personnel from Headquarters in DC on November 9th. A program overview and first year outcomes presentation was made to the Chief of the Alternatives to Detention Unit, Yvonne Evans and her team. This meeting also provided an opportunity to meet the new Contracting Officer, Anthony Gomez. BI and Anthony have been working together to bring him up to date on all of the pending items noted in the chart below. A similar presentation is anticipated to be scheduled for Director John Torres. Update on Miami after Hurricane Wilma The Miami program operated for the entire month of November. Prior to November 8th, the office had no power. During this time, staff continued their efforts to locate all assigned participants, provide any emergency assistance needed, and reinstitute all program requirements and schedules. Other ISAP offices in the country reached out to help with AccuTrax data entry while the power was out and several Miami staff entered data and made phone calls from their homes. Throughout the crisis, staff was able to contact and maintain contact with the majority of the program’s participants. Many of the participants continued to report to ISAP as soon as they were able, despite a waiver or reduction of these requirements, which was communicated to them early into the recovery phase of the storm’s aftermath. Close contact was maintained with DRO and their assistance and guidance during this time was much appreciated. Pending Items Per contract requirements, updated Policy and Procedures (P&P) were submitted to DRO on August 2, 2005; feedback was received and updates were turned in on September 15, 2005. Once the manual is approved, many of the items on the following chart will be completed, as they have been integrated into the updated manual. Once approved, training will begin to implement all updates and changes. The chart is an ongoing compilation of action items as a result of meetings with DRO November 2004, and February, April and May of 2005. Completed action items have been removed.

The proposal was amended on the 26th of October, the 11th of November and the 10th of March. BI met via teleconference on September 19 with Carol Amano and staff to go over the Miami price proposal. More details were requested and these were submitted on September 20, 2005. The Contracting Officer, Anthony Gomez, met with BI this month to go over any final questions regarding the proposal and he is currently working on a write-up. It is anticipated this will be finalized over the next few weeks. Home visit scanning system BI has been investigating improved systems for scanning and documenting home visits by case specialists in the field. The Philadelphia ISAP team took the initiative in investigating improved solutions and a pilot was run through their office using a new scanner system attached to a Nextel phone. It has been very successful and we anticipate rolling the system out to all ISAP over the next 1-2 months. The new system provides increased management tools, to include a verification of where the Participant’s ID card was scanned via GPS.

Moore gave an overview of the ISAP program model. Ann Schlarb was also in attendance, and a meeting with the FOD and COTR was held the following day. On November 21st, St. Paul Program Manager Lynn Mershon and Field Office Director Scott Baniecke met with AILA members to discuss questions regarding ISAP. The meeting was positive and the program well received. The home of a Kansas City participant was destroyed by a fire this month. The Red Cross gave immediate temporary assistance; ISAP personnel connected them with the Union City Mission for ongoing housing and Harvesters International for food. Portland made referrals to the Immigrant and Refugee Community Organization (IRCO) this month as well as a counseling referral to El Progama Hispano for a domestic violence situation. Miami provided several referrals for participants suffering storm damage from Hurricane Wilma, utilizing state, local, and federal agencies.

Media There were no media contacts during the month of November. Kansas City staff viewed a story on local news regarding an amnesty program believed to be a scam and taking money from illegal aliens. They noted that the participant being interviewed was possibly one of their absconders. BI headquarters obtained a copy of the interview and the tape is being forwarded to DRO for any possible follow-up.

Comments Meetings were held with Congressional staffers in November providing an opportunity for education about the ISAP program. The response to the program and its first year outcomes was very positive and recommendations for further meetings were made by several of the staff members. These recommendations are being followed up with meetings scheduled for the week of December 12th. It is also possible BI will meet with DRO personnel during that week as well for continued follow up on outcomes and ongoing priorities.

There was one missed hearing for the month of December. A Baltimore participant failed to report for her court hearing. She also quit both of her jobs and failed to report back to the ISAP office. She was termed as a type E-violator but the term may be altered to an unable to locate once the 30-day appeal has expired. St. Paul ISAP staff, while attending a particpant’s court hearing, overheard false testimony given by the participant to the EOIR judge. The information was put into an emergency report and delivered to the local COTR for follow-up.

San Francisco Program Manager, Fred Hamdun, attended a follow up training on human trafficking, presented by the East Bay Anti-Trafficking Task force and sponsored by the City of Oakland Police Department, U.S. Department of Justice BJA and Cross-Sector Solutions LLC. The information was passed on to the San Francisco ISAP staff as well.



Note taking and report writing was conducted. All ISAP staff will rotate through this training as part of contractual requirements.



Games Criminals Play/Manipulative Behavior was provided for all ISAP staff from the BI training department.



Baltimore staff attended CPR renewal courses.

Contract Compliance DRO Meeting Bruce Thacher and Ann Schlarb met with DRO personnel from Headquarters in DC on December 14th. In attendance from DRO were Anthony Gomez, and Steven Branch. The first (b)(6), (b)(7)c year outcomes were review post order population in the 9th Circuit of San Francisco and the possibility of providing a specialized pilot model. Miami Expansion The Miami expansion modification was approved on December 15th. This will allow a satellite office to expand up to 400 participants. In order to most effectively meet the needs of DRO, The ISAP Program Manager, John LaPallo, developed a briefing presentation on current participant locations and projected terminations. A meeting, including the Field Officer Director, Deputy Director, Supervising Deportation Officer, and COTR, was held to review this data and discuss planning for the satellite site. The group determined that the satellite site would be best able to meet the needs of the local district if it were located in Palm Beach County. This location combined with the existing site will provide for an expanded service area and reasonably permit enrollment of participants who reside from Indian River County to Southern Dade County and the lower keys. A tentative plan to locate a viable site and implement this office has been drafted. Staff recruiting and selection has begun. BI has engaged a commercial real estate firm to locate potential sites in the agreed upon area.

Community Liaison Community referrals continue for ISAP participants. In Kansas City, the Union City Mission was used to provide food and shelter for a participant and his family who are in temporary custody of the Division of Family Services. A Portland Participant was referred to Russian Oregon Social Services for drug treatment delivered in Russian. A Denver case specialist met the Director of the Alternatives Pregnancy Center at a church dinner, and one participant has been referred for services. The St. Paul Program Manager, Lynn Mershon, received a call from an individual who identified himself as the president of a local charter school that focuses on immigrants. This individual was questioning why one of his students had to wear an ankle bracelet and stated that he believed this student was being harassed. This person was informed that his concerns would be relayed to the proper personnel and the COTR was immediately notified of the situation with all contact details.

Media There were no media contacts during the month of December.

Comments On December 15th, BI was asked by DRO to prepare a proposal for assisting with the supervision of the non-detained docket in New Orleans. A brief proposal was submitted on December 18th. No further information has been received at this time. As a follow up to November, additional meetings were held with Congressional staffers in December, providing an opportunity for education about the ISAP program. Once again, the response to the program and its first year outcomes was very positive and recommendations for further meetings were made by several of the staff members. These recommendations are being followed up with meetings scheduled for the week of January 23rd. BI is also available to meet with DRO personnel that week for continued follow up on outcomes and ongoing priorities.
