Any person who knowingly violates the provisions of this Section shall be guilty of a felony and upon conviction thereof, shall be imprisoned for not less than one, not more than five years. I understand the Department of Corrections has a zero tolerance policy prohibiting visitors from having sexual contact with offenders, other than that permitted by this agency (i.e. minimal personal contact such as hand shaking, embracing or kissing is permitted only at the beginning and conclusion of the visit). I understand that my authorization to enter a correctional institution is conditional on my agreement not to engage in sexual activity with any offender and to report such contact to a correctional employee when I learn of it. I also understand that if I violate this agreement I may be permanently banned from entering all Georgia Department of Corrections correctional institutions and that the Department of Corrections may pursue criminal prosecution. |DATE|NAME (Please Print)|EMPLOYER|OFFENDER CONTACTING|CAR TAG#|TIME
