September 16, 2026
9 am - 11 am
Zoom Webinar

The Prisoner Review Board is interested in knowing the view of citizens concerning the possible parole of these residents. Any citizen who would like to express comments on these residents, but is unable to attend one of the Public Comment Sessions, may send a letter to: KANSAS DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS, PRISONER REVIEW BOARD;  714 SW JACKSON STREET, SUITE 300;  TOPEKA, KS 66603.

Residents are required by law to receive a hearing when they become parole eligible. Parole eligibility is not necessarily the same as parole suitability. In determining parole suitability, the Parole Board considers the following ten areas: 1) crime; 2) prior criminal history; 3) program participation; 4) disciplinary record; 5) reports of physical/mental examinations; 6) comments received from the victim, the public and criminal justice officials; 7) prison capacity; 8) input from staff where offender is housed; 9) proportionality to sentence guidelines; and 10) risk factors revealed by any risk assessment.

Overview and Instructions for Written Comments

by CJ Perez last modified Aug 20, 2026 01:30 PM

The Prisoner Review Board conducts monthly Public Comment Sessions.   These sessions provide an opportunity to allow victims, family, public officials, community members, and other interested persons to express their support, opposition, concern, or comments regarding the potential parole of offenders who are scheduled for parole hearings the following month.

In addition to the Board members, a representative from the KDOC Office of Victim Services will be in attendance at each session to provide instructions and assistance. 

Notice of the Public Comment Sessions and a list of parole eligible offenders are posted at: Public Comment Sessions.  Public officials including District Attorneys, Victim/Witness Coordinators and other related correctional agencies across the State also receive notice of Public Comment Sessions.  Victims registered through the Department of Corrections Office of Victim Services will receive direct and confidential notification of these sessions (K.S.A. 74-7335). 

Instructions for completing a written comment form

Please use the offender's name, number and facility if known.  On the relationship line, please note your association to the offender.  Use the comment lines to provide the Board information not already included in the offender's file.  The Board will have information available on institutional adjustment and programs, therefore you will not need to cover these areas unless you have additional information.

Commenting in opposition of parole:

  • Please discuss the present physical, psychological, emotional and/or financial impact of the offenders actions against you, your family member and/or your friend.
  • State any special conditions you would like the Board to consider in the event that the offender is granted parole.

Commenting in support of parole:

  • Please list specific ways in which you can provide assistance to the offender in the community if parole is granted (i.e. residence, job, transportation).
  • Discuss changes you have observed in the offender.
  • Note any of the offender's potential risk areas or concerns.
  •  

The Public Comment Form is provided in portable document format (.pdf) to allow you the option to download, print, fax, mail or e-mail your comments to the Prisoner Review Board. 

The Online Public Comment Form may be used to electronically send your comments to the Prisoner Review Board.

In-Person Public Comment Sessions

by CJ Perez last modified Aug 25, 2026 03:36 PM
The Kansas Prison Review Board will conduct in-person public comment sessions to provide victims, victims’ families, public officials, and other interested individuals an opportunity to provide information regarding offenders being considered for parole. Pursuant to Senate Bill 459, Kansas law now provides additional requirements concerning victim notification and public comment sessions. For inmates convicted of an off-grid felony or Class A felony, a public comment session must be held in person unless the victim or victim’s family requests otherwise. Registered victims or family members must receive written notice of the time and place of the session at least one month in advance. If the required notification is not provided, the Board must postpone the parole suitability hearing as provided by law. (Kansas Legislature⁠). The Kansas Prison Review Board will offer in- person public comments sessions in addition to its existing virtual platform for public comments sessions, providing participants with both in-person and remote opportunities to provide comments to the Board. Public comment sessions allow individuals to share relevant information with the Board before a parole decision is made. Comments may include information regarding the impact of the crime, public safety concerns, an inmate’s release, or other matters the commenter believes should be considered. • Date: September 23, 2026 Time: 9: AM to 2PM Location: Docking State Office Building Room #360 • Address: 915 SW Harrison Street, Topeka, Kansas 66612 Individuals attending the session should allow adequate time for building access and any required security procedures. The Kansas Prison Review Board recognizes the importance of providing victims, families, public officials, and members of the public a meaningful opportunity to be heard. Information received through the public comment process will be considered as part of the Board’s review consistent with Kansas law.
