How Does Parole & Probation Work in Oregon?
The Oregon Department of Community Corrections uses probation and parole to balance the needs of the state, counties, victims and offenders. Through a variety of probation and parole services, the department helps offenders get their lives back on track, build job skills and reintegrate into the community. Of course, Oregon must balance this rehabilitative mission with public safety, so it enforces strict supervision and sanctions when necessary.
