This report contains the probation and parole workload in major program areas of the Maryland Division of Parole and Probation during 1981, as well as a sociodemographic profile of the supervision population and information on special projects under development.
Abstract
The division experienced a record year in the number of violation warrants processed in delinquent cases, with official action taken on about 11 percent of those cases under active supervision. A total of 33,524 new cases were processed, most for probationers received through the court system. The division analyzed supervision agents' workloads and studied recidivism among various releases. The report discusses the activities and operations of the Bureaus of Administrative Services, Field Operations, and Policy and Program Development. Tables, graphs, and charts illustrate the data.
