The Community Corrections service was created to divert felony offenders from the Tennessee Prison system and to provide necessary supervision and services to the offenders with the goal of reducing the probability of continued criminal behavior while maintaining the safety of the community. Today, Community Corrections offers local courts increased options, assists victims, provides public services to local governments, and remains a cost-effective alternative to incarceration.

Costs
Through the Community Corrections Programs, taxpayers avoid paying the high costs of jail or prison for non-violent offenders. Average cost is less than $4.00 a day for Community Corrections Supervision Programs. The program also leaves space in the jails and prisons for violent and repeat offenders, and avoids additional tax costs for Tennessee taxpayers.

““I started coming to Community Corrections is September 2013. When I first started coming here I could not talk to my Case Officer without crying to her about what I had done to myself and to my family. I came here for a 12 week class with my Case Officer. She helped me to understand what I had done and what I needed to do to get my life straighten out…Since I have been coming to Community Corrections I have gotten a job …and definitely staying out of trouble so this system does work!””
