<p> STANDARD PROBATION SUPERVISION The majority of offenders placed on supervised probation by the Courts will be assigned to Standard Supervision. These offenders must report to a probation officer in person on a consistent basis, usually once or twice a month, or as directed by the officer. Offenders are supervised according to their risk to re-offend and needs. Risk and offender needs are identified using evidence based assessment tools such as the Offender Screening Tool (OST) or the Field Reassessment Offender Screening Tool (FROST). Treatment and educational programs, along with other local services, have been proven to be more effective in facilitating long- term behavior change versus incarceration. Effective treatment approaches include a greater focus on higher risk offenders, motivational interviewing strategies, targeted case planning, moral reconation therapy (MRT), or other programs that address anti- social or illegal behavior. Specific treatment may include drug and alcohol counseling, domestic violence counseling, anger management or other issues.
