I am new here and very happy to have found this site. I am from Fort Smith/Van Buren area. My daughters are: 29 yrs old and serving a 30 -yr sentence and 24 yrs. old with PE/TE date of April '08. They are at Newport- McPherson Unit and at Wrightsville work release. I have been to visit them once and am planning another trip this weekend. I have heard rumors about something called "early kick out"/ "early release" and youngest daughter has written to ask me to find out any information about this. I am hoping that she would be included. Anyway, it is very nice to know that this site exists and I am sure that it will be helpful to me. Its just nice to talk to folk that are in this same situation. I miss both of my girls so much and wish they were home with me. I pray every day for their safety and that they are not too lonely. :heart: If someone can explain this early release please contact me and Thank you, girlsmom

Hello and Welcome to Arkansas PTO forum.SO sorry to hear about both your daughters....it must be really hard having them both in.
I only know what I read on here about EPA but I suggest you go to the main Arkansas Forum page in the upper left hand corner of the screen at the top of the boarder....there is a place that says search this forum...put in EPA and it will pull up all posts on Arkansas forum about the EPA.Good luck to you and your family.Be Blessed Kitty
