Supervision Around the World: An Overview of the SAW Project
SESSION INFO
Monday, August 23, 2021
3:00PM - 4:30PM
Session Type: Workshop
When offering community supervision, capacity is built by understanding what types of programs and services enhance client outcomes. This is true regardless of location or culture or population. However, there is currently no database or single point of reference that provides information of what models have worked in different areas. The Supervision Around the World (SAW) Project is tackling that endeavor (www.SAWProject.org). In a unique partnership, the APPA and Community Supervision Solutions (CSS) are working together to chart supervision practices from around the world. We will ultimately identify which of 195 countries offer community-based supervision services, document current practices, build relationships with key administrators, and create an interactive internet repository for gleaned program information. This workshop will offer the history and current findings of the SAW Project, information will be shared about unique programming models from around the world, and we’ll also provide a demonstration of key website components.
