The levels:
Level 1 (now known as "entry level")-- in this level, the inmate may not speak, stand up, sit down, move or do anything without asking for permission first. They can only communicate with their parents through letters.
Level 2 (now known as Achievement Level)-- in this level, the inmate is still under heavy control, but they can stand up/sit down/move from one room to another without asking for permission, and they get a few more meaningless priviledges. They still can't communicate with their parents in any way besides the letters, which are subject to censorship.
Level 3 (now known as Advanced Status)-- in this level, the inmate is permitted to talk to his/her parents by phone-- once a month, for 15 minutes.
Level 4 (now known as Service Status)-- inmates have two 20 minute phone calls with parents monthly. They also have one 3-day visit a month in local area (not overnight).
Level 5 (now known as Honor Status)-- inmates have three 20 minute phone calls with parents monthly. They also have one 3-day overnight visit a month in local area (not at home). They may have homevisits after completing the Parent-Child II Seminar.
Level 6 (now known as High Honor Status)-- inmates have weekly 20 minute phone calls with parents. They also continue to have their home visits on this level.
This may not sounds so bad-- unless you consider the fact that you can get dropped for pretty much anything, that WWASPS has an interest in keeping you there as long as possible, and that it takes the vast majority of inmates months, sometimes years, till they reach a level where they can see or talk to their parents.
