PROBATION |
|
|
|
MN STATUTE 609.02, SUBD 15:
"PROBATION" means a
court-ordered sanction imposed upon an offender for a period of supervision no
greater than that set by statute. It is imposed as an alternative to
confinement or intermediate sanctions. The purpose of probation is to deter
further criminal behavior, punish the offender, help provide reparation to crime
victims and their communities, and provide offenders with opportunities for
rehabilitation. |

DESCRIPTION OF DEPARTMENT |
|
|
|
Martin County Probation is
responsible for supervising all adults placed on probation for gross misdemeanor
and misdemeanor level offenses, and all juveniles placed on probation. We
provide investigative reports to the Court and make sentencing recommendations.
We are responsible for protecting public safety and holding offenders
accountable to the orders of the Court. Our department provides early
intervention and prevention services to youth, specifically with the Teen Court
and Early Intervention Truancy programs. We provide cognitive skill building
groups for juveniles. We provide restorative justice programs such as
family/group conferencing to the community. We administer a juvenile
restitution program so victims in the community are compensated for their
losses. We provide a community service program for juveniles under the age of
14. We work closely with our collaborating agencies: law enforcement, human
services, the county attorney, the city attorney, the schools, Sentence to
Service, and Court Administration. |
