Question Are inmates allowed to attend longhouse/sweatlodge in Alaska's prisons?

Hello,
can there anyone help me to find or give the information, which prisons in Alaska have a longhouse and which a sweatlodge? And which types of religous services are available to Inmates?
Any experiences?

Best greetings,
kka

Hi, I'm not sure if Alaska allows sweatlodge for the inmates there, but I did a search and found the religious policy for you. It doesn't mention sweatlodge at all, so that's why I'm not sure. Here's the link to the policy on religious services:

Thank you very much. This link is helpful like all information, because I'm new in this system.
I'm searching too which Alaska Prison has "the best Native American support" for
Indians from the northwest coast.
