Sheriff's Office Day Reporting Program (DRP) is an alternative to
incarceration for low risk offenders. The program offers intensive
supervision and case management services, giving selected offenders the
opportunity to live and work in the community while addressing the issues
that led to criminal charges.
Current services include
the following group sessions and classes: substance abuse treatment,
substance abuse education, gender specific programming, relapse prevention,
dual recovery, after care, anger management/domestic violence, family in the
system (family therapy), employment counseling, GED, criminal thinking, life
skills, parenting, domestic training, responsible living, spirituality, tai
chi, defensive driving, AA / NA, random drug screens, and curfew calls. A
variety of treatment modalities are incorporated including Rational Emotive
Therapy, Experiential, Cognitive Restructuring (cognitive-behavioral), and
Reality Therapy. Offenders are required to pay a monthly supervision fee,
pay on their court costs monthly, and pay restitution if so ordered by the
court. The program is a maximum of one year in length. After graduation
participants are considered alumni and may attend unsupervised aftercare
free of charge. If a graduate finds himself or herself in need of more
intensive treatment, they may attend regular treatment groups at a low
alumni rate.
The DRP staff works
closely with the judicial system to provide a structured plan of supervision
and treatment. The majority of referrals are made though General Sessions,
Juvenile and Circuit Courts. DRP will consider selected offenders from the
Criminal Courts. The Judges decide when an offender can complete the
program and when a warrant needs to be signed for his/her arrest for program
non-compliance.
DRP operates with a
staff of 11 professionals with various credentials, overseeing a capacity of
300 offenders.
