The Chicken or the Egg: Caseload Size or Time-Per-Interaction?
SESSION INFO
Tuesday, January 7, 2020
11:15 AM - 12:15 PM
Session Type: Workshop
Community corrections professionals often discuss their average caseload sizes, but is this where their focus should be? This workshop will present findings from a study conducted by Deloitte on behalf of the Georgia Department of Community Supervision that focused on quantifying the ideal caseload size and increasing efficiency in field operations. The presenter will explain how the focus of Deloitte’s study shifted from caseload size to time-per-interaction, the different factors that impact this number, and its relationship to the effective implementation of evidence-based practices. The presenter will also reveal the steps the Department of Community of Supervision has implemented and plans to implement to increase time-per-interaction.
