Short title. This act shall be known and may be cited as the "New York state program for older prisoners act". S 2. Legislative findings and intent. The legislature hereby finds and declares that age has been found to be the most reliable predictor for recidivism and that older inmates pose a very low risk of recidivism. In order to develop more effective and cost-efficient treatment for the rising population of geriatric prisoners, the legislature directs the board to establish a program to consider the release of geriatric inmates who do not pose a public safety risk. It is further found and declared that it is the legislature's inten- tion to direct the board of parole to identify all eligible low-risk geriatric prisoners who are promising candidates for release and, where appropriate, to release them with adequate transitional programs, appro- priate levels of community supervision and to assist them to obtain aftercare services. S 3. Subdivision 3 of section 259 of the executive law, as added by section 37 of subpart A of part C of chapter 62 of the laws of 2011, is amended to read as follows: 3. "Community supervision" means the supervision of individuals released into the community on temporary release, presumptive release, parole, conditional release, post release supervision [or], medical parole OR GERIATRIC PAROLE.
