The Probation Department is charged with the responsibility of community
protection and offender rehabilitation. This is accomplished through mandated services to the court, specifically investigative reports and
recommendations, and departmental efforts to guide offenders granted probation through the use of specialized caseloads, intensive
supervision, and referral to appropriate therapeutic services.
The Probation Department consists of two major divisions: Probation Services and Juvenile Institutions. The Probation Services
Division includes: Administration, Adult and Juvenile Probation Services, Jail Services, Juvenile Grants, and Juvenile Justice Crime
Prevention Act (JJCPA), which supports the goal of reducing juvenile crime and promoting juvenile accountability through the use of
community-based resources dedicated to strengthening families. The Juvenile Institutions Division includes the three juvenile
detention/commitment facilities: Juvenile Hall, Sierra Youth Center (SYC), and Probation Camp. Additionally, the Juvenile Institution
Division includes the Supervised Adult Crew Program (SAC), a program that allows offenders to participate in work crews doing
landscaping, and/or major maintenance and construction projects for government and non-profit agencies. This permits offenders to live
at home and maintain employment while completing their court ordered obligation, or allows them to complete community service while
serving time in the North County Detention Center.
