Adult Probation Services
Group Reporting
Some offenders on probation are determined to be of low risk to the community and less likely to re-offend. It is this population that meets the specific criteria from the General Field Unit and DUI Unit that allows supervision through the Group Reporting format. Group Reporting is facilitated in collaboration with the College of Lake County.
This project is designed to allow large groups of probationers to report to various sites where presentations are given and reporting forms are collected. The project provides low-risk offenders an opportunity to receive educational information and information on resources that can benefit them. Some topics that may be addressed at Group Reporting include financial management, substance abuse, domestic violence, and anger/stress management. Additionally, with the assistance of several trained community volunteers, there is an opportunity for “one on one” interaction. Probationers that are compliant and complete their conditions of probation may be eligible for early termination of probation.
