Okla. Stat. tit. 57, § 57-332.8: Conditions for parole - Employment and residence

assistance.

No recommendations to the Governor for parole shall be made nor

any paroles granted by the Board in relation to any inmate in a

penal institution in the State of Oklahoma unless the Pardon and

Parole Board considers the victim impact statements if presented to

the jury, or the judge in the event a jury was waived, at the time

of sentencing and, in every appropriate case, as a condition of

parole, monetary restitution of economic loss as defined by Section

991f of Title 22 of the Oklahoma Statutes, incurred by a victim of

the crime for which the inmate was imprisoned. In every case, the

Pardon and Parole Board shall first consider the number of previous

felony convictions and the type of criminal violations leading to

any such felony convictions, then shall consider either suitable

employment or a suitable residence, and finally shall mandate

participation in education programs to achieve the proficiency level

established in Section 510.7 of this title or, at the discretion of

the Board require the attainment of a general education diploma, as

a condition for release on parole. The Board shall consider the

availability of programs and the waiting period for such programs in

setting conditions of parole release. The Board may require any

program to be completed after the inmate is released on parole as a

condition of parole. A facsimile signature of the inmate on parole

papers that is transmitted to the Board shall be an accepted means

of acknowledgement of parole conditions. The probation and parole

officer shall render reasonable assistance to any person making

application for parole, in helping to obtain suitable employment or

enrollment in an education program or a suitable residence. Any

inmate who fails to satisfactorily attend and make satisfactory

progress in the educational program in which the inmate has been

required to participate as a condition of parole, may have his or

her parole revoked. If an inmate's parole is revoked, such inmate

shall be returned to confinement in the custody of the Department of

Corrections.
