Parole Board Members Training: It is estimated that over 800,000 people return to the community each year following a period of incarceration in prisons. These justice involved individuals can transition through the correctional system and reenter society on parole in ways that reduce the chance that they commit a new crime and, consequently, protect the public. It is for this reason parole board members should have the competencies to collaborate with criminal justice system and community partners, use current research, and build infrastructure and capacity within parole organizations for delivering services effectively and efficiently. Well-educated paroling authorities use current research to guide the way they operate and makes decisions to help make our communities safer and stop needless expenditures of precious public resources.
