Modeled after the popular TV show “Family Feud,” the Correctional Training Facility (CTF) at Soledad held their own version dubbed Friendly Feud.
Following the success of the CTF Friendly Feud, plans are in place to organize more California Model style events. Events such as these offer opportunities for engagement and development among the incarcerated population.
The event was well-received, with participants and attendees appreciating the opportunity to interact in a constructive and relaxed setting.
The March 7 event was held in the Facility C gymnasium featuring four teams, each consisting of five members of staff and the incarcerated population.

“Today showcased the benefits of collaborative events in a correctional environment,” said Warden Edward J. Borla. These activities are integral to our ongoing efforts to implement the California Model, which aims to promote rehabilitation through positive reinforcement.”
Correctional Sgt. R. Glaze was instrumental in organizing the event. Glaze handled everything from the audio/visual setup and the “Family Feud” software to formulating questions and recruiting volunteers.
The gameplay followed the standard “Family Feud” rules with teams competing to identify the most popular answers to survey questions previously posed to 100 CTF staff and incarcerated individuals.
