		Iowa State Penitentiary history is older then the State of Iowa itself and deeply rich with interesting Iowa prison accounts.
		The Iowa State Penitentiary was established in 1839, by the Authority of the Iowa Territorial Legistature, making it the first territorial prison and oldest penal institution west of the Mississippi - seven years older then the State of Iowa..
		This "priosn", was built on ten acres of land that was donated to the Territory of Iowa by local citizens, and was completed in 1841 at a cost of $55,933.30.

	Iowa Prison Very Slow in Addressing Mental Health Issues
		State leaders have placed a priority on prison mental-health issues - despite budget cuts in other areas of state government - to avoid being found in contempt of the federal court ruling.
		State legislators and others who hold the purse strings have been "very, very slow" in addressing how mental-health issues affect the prison system, said Margaret Stout, executive director of the Alliance for the Mentally Ill of Iowa.
		Donald Black, a University of Iowa psychiatrist who has treated Iowa inmates, said the prison population is so varied in terms of psychiatric diagnoses, substance-abuse history and other factors that it is difficult to speculate on the degree of success that can be achieved in treating mentally ill offenders.

		The Board stated in Long Stretch Youth Home, that its decision to assert jurisdiction was not based on the failure of the exempt entity to ex- ercise its authority to disapprove the employer's wage/benefit proposals, but on the absence of any such authority.
