Plenary: Setting a New Standard for Community Supervision
SESSION INFO
Saturday, June 29, 2024
2:00 PM - 3:30 PM
Session Type: Plenary
With the support of the National Institute of Corrections and the American Probation and Parole Association, there has been collaboration between a workgroup of community supervision experts from across the country to develop the first National Standards for Community Supervision.
The National Standards will guide community supervision agencies in strengthening and improving services, policy, and practice. They are meant to help spur conversations and guide agencies looking to update their policies or align performance measures with evidence-based practices. The goal of these Standards is to assess and compile research so agencies can implement practices that will support rehabilitation and help individuals on supervision lead productive lives. This session will highlight the subjects covered by the Standards, how the field can access the Standards and provide feedback, and ways to incorporate the Standards into daily practice.
