Examine the history and development of probation and parole in the correctional system. What
are the four reasons for probation and the goals achieved throughout the process? What are the

of collaboration and accountability is necessary to ensure the proper execution of these
correctional methods (e.g. probation officers, parole officers)? When answering these questions,
please be sure to consider the impact that these forms of community corrections have on the
correctional process.
