BY JEFF CHUDZINSKINorth Country This WeekCANTON -- July 21-27 is Probation, Parole and Community Supervision Week.
County legislators issued the proclamation during the July 1 full board meeting.
According to the resolution, "community corrections professionals are trained professionals who provide services and referrals for offenders, and work in partnership with other community agencies to promote prevention, intervention, and advocacy."
Officials note that community corrections "is an essential part of the justice system," with community corrections professionals upholding the law "with dignity, while recognizing the right of the public to be safe-guarded from criminal activity."
Community correctional professionals are responsible for supervising adult and juvenile offenders in the community and provide services, support and protection to victims, officials say.
