DOP supervises adults and juveniles sentenced to probation by NYC courts, providing an alternative to incarceration. Probation officers monitor compliance with court-ordered conditions, connect people to services, and work to reduce recidivism. Probation is the most common criminal sentence in America. When it works, it keeps people out of jail, connected to jobs and families, and reduces crime. When it fails, people end up back in the system -- costing taxpayers far more.
