The Adult Probation Department Annual Reports illustrate the Department’s ongoing commitment to enhance public safety and promote positive behavior change from individuals under its supervision. During the year, significant steps are taken in their continuing initiative to fully integrate evidence-based practices into the organizational culture.
The purpose of this report is to provide a proof of concept for a different, alternative method for evaluating police agencies. Our method is couched in a comparative approach, which will allow agencies to compare their performance to other police agencies. This report assesses police performance through the perceptions and experiences of recently booked arrestees. By comparing the perceptions and experiences of recently booked arrestees from different jurisdictions we can begin to contextualize results and observe differences that might serve as an early warning of a problem or serve as an indicator of success.
