  MISSION STATEMENT:
The mission of the Probation Department is to promote public safety by providing community oriented, criminal justice sanctions and by assisting the offender to remain in his community, as a law-abiding and productive citizen.  In our juvenile justice role, the department strives to promote the growth of juveniles in a positive, law-abiding manner, within the family context.

PRIMARY FUNCTIONS

  • Intake Diversion: Preliminary probation procedures authorized by law to evaluate all complaints regarding juveniles, either Juvenile Delinquent (JD's), or Persons In Need of Supervision (PINS) and adjust such complaints through voluntary participation in an informal probation supervision.
     
  • Investigation: The conduct of background investigations as ordered by the court (County, City, Justice, Family) on convicted/adjudicated defendants / respondents scheduled for sentence.
     
  • Supervision: The ongoing monitoring and case management activities of those individuals sentenced to probation.  This is the most important activity of a Probation Officer as it relates directly to the public safety aspect of our mission.
