The responsibility for supervision of the majority of probation and parole offenders in the District of Columbia is assigned to the general supervision function which is subdivided into two branches. The actual supervision and monitoring of probationers and parolees is conducted by officers assigned to eleven general supervision teams located in field units situated throughout the city. These neighborhood service centers enable officers to closely monitor offenders in the communities where they live and enhance partnership initiatives with the police, other criminal justice system agencies, treatment resources and various supportive services. The process of initiating and maintaining supervision authority over offenders rests in a risk assessment screening that is administered at the beginning of the supervision term and at scheduled intervals throughout the case management term.
