Have you ever wondered how case management work hours are being allocated by your staff? Is the ratio of time dedicated to managing high, medium, and low risk offenders in your state consistent with evidence-based practices? Following a year of collaborative statewide planning and development work, Oregon recently completed a successful community corrections offender case management time study aimed at answering these questions and more. The study involved 36 counties, more than 1000 community corrections staff, and close to 45,000 case entries over a 16-week period. The resulting data was compiled, vetted, and uploaded into a dashboard format for ease of access and interpretation.
