Division of the Board of Probation and Parole

The Division of Parole and Probation is responsible for the supervision of recently released offenders. Offenders without a stable or acceptable home plan are sent to the release centers. At these centers assistance is given to recently released offenders to find employment and explore housing options. There is no set time limit that a recently released offender may remain at the center. Parole/probation officers have established, through the years, relationships with local employers who hire recently released offenders. Referrals are made to local career centers and local substance abuse treatment centers.
