Of those probationers who received an ADE assessment, the following graph identifies their level ofsubstance abuse (i.e. alcohol and/or drug). According to the ADE assessment results, a majority(77.4%) of probationers have serious issues with alcohol addiction (i.e. Alcohol ADE score of 4 orhigher). Severe drug-abuse problems were much less common.

The cost to probationers for treatment ranges from $350 to $1,000 depending on thelevel of treatment received. The length of treatment is determined by the counseling agency. A list ofthe treatment agencies utilized by the Department of Probation and Community Corrections is providedin Attachment L.A survey (Attachment M) was distributed to the agencies that provide counseling services toprobationers in Ottawa County. It is worth noting that all eleven agencies indicated they provideholistic (spiritual, physical, social, emotional, mental) treatment to address all of a probationer’sunderlying issue(s) that may have contributed to them being in the criminal justice system.1. Data regarding the type(s) of treatment (e.g. outpatient, intensive outpatient) probationers were ordered to attend were not collected.Evaluation: Traditional and ISP Probation Page 11 Prepared by: Ottawa County Planning Department (08/03/07)
C. Home and Office VisitsHome and office visits are conducted by Probation Officers to ensure offenders are not violating the termsof their probation. The visits are integral components of the Traditional Probation and ISP programsbecause they promote accountability. Since ISP is a more intensely supervised program, both home andoffice visits are generally required for all participants. Traditional probationers are required to participatein office visits; however, home visits are not generally required unless a Probation Officer suspects anoffender is violating the terms of their probation.The following table (Table 12) shows the number of probationers receiving home and office visits. It isworth noting that 17 (7.3%) of the 232 ISP probationers did not participate in an office visit, and 3 (1.3%)ISP probationers did not receive a home visit during their participation in the program. However, of the17 ISP probationers who did not attend an office visit, 11 (64.7%) were revoked from probation withinone month of being sentenced. Likewise, of the 3 ISP probationers who did not receive a home visit, 2(66.7%) were revoked from probation within one month of being sentenced. In contrast, someprobationers who were in the program for less than a month did participate in home and office visits.Table 12Home and Office VisitsTraditional ISP TotalHome VisitsHad at least one home visit 5 (0.4%) 229 (98.7%) 234 (14.9%)Did not have any home visits 1,335 (99.6%) 3 (1.3%) 1 1,338 (85.1%)Office VisitsHad at least one office visit 1,279 (95.4%) 215 (92.7%) 1,494 (95.0%)Did not have any office visits 61 (4.6%) 17 (7.3%) 1 78 (5.0%)Source: Department of Probation and Community Corrections1. 2 of the 3 ISP probationers not receiving a home visit and 11 of the 17 not receiving an office visit wererevoked from probation within one month of being sentenced.85.1%95.0%Percent of Probationers14.9%5.0%100.0%90.0%80.0%70.0%60.0%50.0%40.0%30.0%20.0%10.0%0.0%Home VisitsOffice VisitsType of VisitHad at least one visitDid not have any visits1. Home VisitsDue to the fact that only five Traditional probationers received a home visit during their first 12months 1 in probation, the average number of visits conducted (per probationer) is extremely low(See graph on the following page). However, because ISP is a more intense program, the averagenumber of visits conducted (per probationer) is significantly higher. In general, there is an overall1.
