The purpose of the program was to improve community safety by providing pre-release services and successful transition planning and aftercare services to offenders released from state institutions to the Second Judicial District Department of Correctional Services. Participants included all offenders released to the Second Judicial District during the grant period. Participants were involved in a three phase program which included: 1. Institution Phase – The re-entry and assessment staff administered the LSI-R and other pertinent assessments during intake and completed a reentry case plan. While in the institution participants were referred to appropriate services including the Life Skills program, when appropriate. 2. Community Transition – Participants who were within 180 days of release were assessed and community programs identified that would best help the participant transition into the community. A determination was made to either refer the offender to Spectrum Wraparound Services or to Corrections’ Reach-in Program. 3. Aftercare Phase – Participants received aftercare services as provided by either Spectrum Wraparound Services or the Reach In program for three to 12 months. Satisfactory completion of the program was determined by consultation with Community Based Corrections and Spectrum staff and the parole officer. The criteria for Spectrum Wraparound Services included the following: • 18 years of age or older • No violent aggravated misdemeanors or felonies; violent serious misdemeanors may be included • Offenders with juvenile violent record may be included • No sex offenses (includes juvenile records and serious misdemeanor offenses) • No murder offenses (NCIC records were checked to determine eligibility). For comparison purposes, a random sample of offenders was selected. These offenders were released to the Second Judicial District during the period from March 1, 2006 to June 30, 2007 when reentry services were not available to offenders being released to rural communities. This report will identify and analyze demographic data, interventions, release and supervision information, employment, risk scores, violations, drug use, and recidivism of participants.
