The Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003 was a bi-partisan piece of legislature meant to curb the rate of prison rapes and sexual assaults by instituting a “zero tolerance” policy as well as gathering research and aggregating data. The act established national standards of conduct and accountability for facilities and personnel.
In a proactive effort to protect our partners and employees, Canteen Services now provides training on the Prison Rape Elimination Act of 2003, or PREA, to all Canteen staff members.
