Parole and Probation
In Oregon, the supervision of adult offenders on parole, probation, and post-prison supervision is known as Community Corrections. According to the Oregon Association of Community Corrections Directors, "Community Corrections is responsible for the supervision of convicted adult felons whom the courts and parole board have placed in the community under a limited, structured state of freedom. The overall goal is to protect the community by helping offenders become law-abiding, contributing citizens."
In Morrow County, Community Corrections is the responsibility of the Corrections Division of the Sheriff's Office. The Corrections Division is responsible for supervising adult offenders on parole, probation, and post-prison supervision who reside in Morrow County.
Deputies within the Corrections Division are known as Parole & Probation Deputies, or PO’s. Within the context of their job, they play many different roles. These may range from enforcement of numerous rules or violations to counseling offenders in various life decisions. Parole and Probation deputies provide the highest level of supervision to offenders who present the greatest risk to the community. A variety of statutory, policy and contractual mandates are satisfied such as: sex offender notification, management of offenders sentenced to one year or less in local jails, transitional pre-release assessment and planning, and hearings.
