Why Should We Reward Them for Doing What They’re Supposed to Do? Incentives and Rewards in Community Supervision
SESSION INFO
Wednesday, February 28, 2024
9:45 AM - 10:45 AM
Session Type: Workshop
Community supervision has come a long way from the days of working with clients in a compliance-only mode. Probation and parole departments are recognizing that we work with people as a whole and that, if we want positive behavioral change, rewarding positive behavior is important. This workshop will look at how jurisdictions across the country are using creative incentives and rewards to encourage change. During the workshop, participants will look at their own programs and identify how they are (probably) already using rewards and develop a plan to increase the use of incentives and rewards in their jurisdictions.
