Executive Summary Workload

The workload section reflects the number of placement events and the number of offenders placed on a particular type of supervision/monitoring unit. Because offenders can be placed on a particular type of supervision/monitor more than once within a given time period, it is necessary to consider both of these numbers.

  • Table 2A: Community Control Placements by Fiscal Year


    • The number of new placements during the year has remained fairly steady from FY 1995-96 through FY 1999-00, with a slight decrease in FY 2000-01 through FY 2003-04.


    • Overtime, the number of different offenders being supervised on Community Control increased from 16,561 in FY 1993-94 to a high of 28,623 in FY 1999-00 and decreased to 20,515 in FY 2003-04.


    • As seen in the June 30th offender counts for each year, there are now about 7,957 offenders being supervised on Community Control. This has decreased slightly since FY 1993-94.
