This guide provides information to strengthen the management efforts of projects involved in the Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention's national initiative on restitution.
Abstract
The guide includes three major tasks for managers to complete: a review of the national perspective and the project's relationship to it; a review of the project's purpose and objectives relative to the national goals; and a review of a model flow chart from which projects can examine their relationship to local court structures to develop procedures for daily operations. In addition, the guide contains a discussion of related administrative areas and suggestions to consider which are subject to varying local situations. Finally, it includes a number of examples for restitution agreements, verification of loss, progress reports for case management, and staff position descriptions. Tabular data are provided.
