What is the Probation Agencys main goal with regards to victim reparation?
Probation officers are responsible for contacting crime victims to inform them of their rights and the Court process. Furthermore, the officer collects pertinent data from the victim that allows the Court to order restitution. Probation officers collect restitution in a timely manner in an effort to compensate victims for their losses. In many cases, probation officers are required to ensure that victims are protected from any further emotional/physical harm from the offender.
