TIPS-2 (2024) for Family of INMATES:
Due to COVID19 Prison movement was very restricted during 2020-2023; inmates could not
attend Group or do Self Help classes to increase their Rehabilitation
programs. The Law Office of Diane T. Letarte (619-233-3688) created TIPS-2 for the Family of the inmates so they could find external resources to help their Love One (LO) in prison.
We finally were able to update the TIPS-2 Self-Help Resources Packet for 2024; it is available to Friends and Family Members, for a nominal Web fee convenience to download it. You can make as many copies as you want once downloaded - there is no copyright restrictions. If you want our law office to US Legal mail a copy to the prison we charge for print, Shipping and handling - CLICK HERE for the Hard copy purchase of TIPS-2 and follow directions on our website.
The TIPS-2 Resource pages (download) (over 60 pages) are from all different sources that our office as acquired over many years of practice, to assist our Long Term and Lifer Offender clients. We have compiled documents in one packet so that Family/Friends can assist their Love One in their Journey of Rehabilitation. We were able to add new Free Correspondence course addresses for inmates to use. Some classes are Free and others are available for a small fee for their services. This packet contains several different topics; Book List, Book Report Sample, Correspondence Classes (some free), Transitional Housing resources, Newsletters and how to subscribe to the Newsletters.
The Law Office of Diane T. Letarte has no affiliations with any of the Newsletters, except that we also subscribe to them; they have good updates on Parole Hearings and new case law.
