The Residential Drug Abuse Program (RDAP) is the only federal prison program that can reduce your sentence by up to 12 months — But it’s not automatic — you must qualify, apply properly, and often advocate for your placement. I’ll show you how.
You must have a documented, verifiable substance use disorder — either drugs or alcohol — before your arrest. Your pre-sentence interview is the critical opportunity to demonstrate this history.
Before the PSI — ideally even before plea or sentencing. What you say and what your attorney files can make or break your eligibility.
Many attorneys don’t understand RDAP’s nuance. I’ve completed it, coached others through it, and know what the BOP looks for — and how to avoid disqualifying mistakes.
The emotional impact of a federal indictment doesn’t stop with the defendant. Spouses, children, parents, and close friends often feel just as lost — overwhelmed by fear, shame, and uncertainty.
For me and my journey, this part was the most difficult because I lacked understanding and had zero help or guidance and almost lost my family because of it. For me, this was the biggest reason I choose to become a Prison Consultant. I witnessed the family dynamics destroyed with so many inmates because of lack of communications, understanding, and isolation during this stage of the process.
I’ve lived it — and I know how critical it is to support the family, not just the person going to prison.
