Offender Reformation

Offender Reformation:

Offenders should leave the justice system more capable of being positive, contributing members of the community than when they entered the system. Rather than simply receiving treatment and services aimed at suppressing problem behavior, offenders should take measurable steps toward becoming a positive citizen, and improving their ability to function as productive, responsible citizens.

Offender Accountability

Offender Accountability:

Criminal behavior affects and harms individuals and the community. Criminal behavior creates an obligation on the part of the offender to make amends to those they have harmed. The offender must meaningfully address this obligation through personal actions. Community Corrections works to direct resources toward holding offenders accountable. Offenders should be provided opportunities to make amends and repair the harm in ways that are meaningful to those impacted.

Overview
