What is the primary purpose of Community Control?

The primary purpose of Community Control is to impose intense supervision within the community. This approach is designed to monitor and manage offenders who are deemed suitable for a less restrictive environment than prison while still requiring oversight to ensure compliance with the conditions of their supervision. Community Control serves as a way to hold offenders accountable, reduce recidivism, and provide a structured environment that allows for rehabilitation while keeping public safety in mind. It combines elements of supervision and support, enabling offenders to reintegrate into society while adhering to specific rules and regulations. This method also reflects a shift towards alternatives to incarceration, emphasizing rehabilitation over punishment.
