including line staff, supervisors and administrators. Educators, volunteers and concerned
citizens with an interest in criminal and juvenile justice are also among APPA's members.
APPA will continue to effectively provide services to its constituents. The association
represents a strong, unified voice for the field of community corrections.Mission Statement
