California Compassionate Release Consulting

No one should die in prison waiting on paperwork.

The Revive Project, LLC walks families and incarcerated people through compassionate release and medical parole petitions — from the first medical record to the day someone comes home. We prepare the documentation, track the deadlines, and coordinate the release plan so a family can spend that time together instead of on hold.

What We Do

Four kinds of help, from the first phone call to the ride home.

01

Medical & ADA Documentation

We prepare the medical records, physician declarations, and ADA-related documentation that support compassionate release and medical parole petitions.

02

Petition & Legislative Outreach

Warden requests, state forms, exhaustion timelines, and constituent letters to legislators — assembled, dated, and tracked so nothing lapses.

03

Release Plan Coordination

We coordinate the practical plan courts and agencies need to see: housing, hospice, In-Home Supportive Services (IHSS), transportation, and caregiver arrangements.

04

Family Guidance

Plain-language updates, help communicating with counsel and case managers, and someone to call when the process stalls or the news gets hard.

The Process

Five steps, tracked in the open.

  1. 1

    Intake

    You tell us the name, the facility, and the medical situation. No cost, no obligation.

  2. 2

    Records

    We gather medical records, sentencing documents, and the history needed for the petition.

  3. 3

    Request

    A formal compassionate release or medical parole request goes to the warden or agency, with the clock tracked.

  4. 4

    Filing

    If denied or ignored, the motion moves to the sentencing court with full supporting materials.

  5. 5

    Homecoming

    Housing, hospice, transport, IHSS, and follow-up care arranged before the door opens.

Why It Matters

The same man, two very different rooms.

Terminally ill and permanently incapacitated people age out of any public-safety argument long before the paperwork catches up. Compassionate release is the difference between a cell and a window.

Before

Cuffed and shackled in a cell block, receiving care the facility was never built to give.

After

Home with family, in hospice or IHSS care, with a release plan already in place.
