These services, programs, and activities will include, but are not be limited to: orientation; medical evaluations and treatments; disciplinary proceedings; and during any other programs including, but not limited to, rehabilitative, educational, or transitional programs offered to other similarly situated incarcerated individuals.

The parties agree that the Interpreter for DPSCS Activities, religious services, and religious meetings does not need to be a “Qualified Interpreter” as defined in this Agreement. If the volunteer organization or individual volunteer has an interpreter for the DPSCS Activities, religious services, and religious meetings, DPSCS will ensure that the interpreter, at a minimum, satisfies the requirements of 28 C.F.R.
