Warren Alternate Sentencing Program Inc.

Warren County Court Services Overview

Warren County Court Services is dedicated to fulfilling the mandates of the Common Pleas Court while ensuring community safety, delivering justice for victims, and holding offenders accountable through evidence-based practices that promote positive behavioral change. The Adult Probation Unit focuses on effectively supervising offenders under community control, aiding their reintegration into society. This is achieved by collaborating with local services to address the specific needs of offenders, including support in employment, education, and programming designed to foster responsible citizenship.

In addition to probation services, the Community Corrections Unit plays a crucial role by providing alternative supervision and sentencing options, which prioritize community safety. Established in 1996, this unit allows inmates work release privileges, enabling them to support their families while incarcerated. By utilizing electronic monitored house arrest, the unit helps divert offenders from jail, significantly reducing costs for the county. The incorporation of advanced technologies, such as GPS and Transdermal Alcohol Detection, further enhances supervision capabilities.

The Pretrial Services Unit complements these efforts by facilitating informed release and detention decisions that balance defendants' rights with community safety. This unit strives to ensure that defendants appear before the court while minimizing the risk of reoffending. By offering these comprehensive services, Warren County Court Services aims to serve the taxpayers effectively, reducing the financial burden of incarceration while maintaining a focus on public safety and the rehabilitation of offenders.
