7. Number of Recidivism OffensesThe post program recidivism rates for <strong>Traditional</strong> and ISP probationers are based on an offender’sfirst reconviction after program completion. For that reason, an analysis was conducted todetermine the total number of reconvictions by offenders who had recidivated. Based on thisassessment, ISP recidivists had a higher average number of reconvictions (1.67) than <strong>Traditional</strong>probationers (1.34) within the first 24 months after completing the program (all probationersincluded in the recidivism analysis had completed the program at least 24 months prior to theanalysis). As stated previously, this may be the result of ISP probationers having a predisposition tomore serious crime and reoccurring patterns of criminal behavior. The following table (Table 22)identifies the total number of reconvictions as well as the average number of reconvictions for<strong>Traditional</strong> and ISP probationers who recidivated.Table 22Number of Reconvictions<strong>Traditional</strong>ISPTotal Number of Offenders who Completed <strong>Probation</strong> 1,041 123Total Number of <strong>Probation</strong>ers who Recidivated 155 18Total Number of Reconvictions 208 30Average Number of Reconvictions (Per Recidivist) 1.34 1.67Source: Department of <strong>Probation</strong> and Community CorrectionsAverage21.81.61.41.210.80.60.40.201.34<strong>Traditional</strong>ISP1.67TradtitionalISPAverage Number of Reconviction OffensesEvaluation: <strong>Traditional</strong> and ISP <strong>Probation</strong> Page 27 Prepared by: <strong>Ottawa</strong> <strong>County</strong> Planning Department (08/03/07)
