It then describes the BOP's selection of Muslim chaplains and other religious services providers, including their recruitment, application process, and security screening. It next discusses BOP endorsing organizations, their relationships with the BOP, and the steps the BOP and FBI have taken to assess whether these organizations are extremist or affiliated with terrorists. |
