MISSION:

It is the mission of the Glenn County Probation Department to provide cost effective services to the community that promotes the safety and protection of citizens by holding offenders accountable in a manner that respects the rights and dignity of the individual by guiding and shaping pro-social behavior through the judicious application of sanctions and services to help offenders acquire the proper skills to facilitate their rehabilitation into law abiding, contributing members of society.

CORE VALUES:

That human beings are capable of change and that it is the probation officer’s responsibility to deliver services with integrity and in a manner that is respectful to the rights and dignity of the individual being supervised.

Victims have the right to be heard, protected, and justly compensated for their losses.

Safety for the community is best achieved by a careful balance between enforcement activity and supportive individual casework.

Constant vigilance will be maintained in finding and developing innovative, evidence based, cost effective correctional programs for offender rehabilitation.

Developing and encouraging collaborative partnerships with outside referral agencies is integral to providing quality service to offenders and the community.
