Case Planning

Case plans are roadmaps to success for persons on supervision. Supervision officers should collaborate with individuals to develop plans, which boosts commitment and buy-in. Officers should share assessment information with persons on supervision to increase understanding of the planning and supervision process.

Supervision should focus on case plans and plan-related activities. Supervision officers and persons on supervision should discuss case plans and progress on objectives at every contact or interaction. Officers should update plans regularly, and updates should include tracking outcomes of objectives and overall progress toward accomplishing supervision goals. New objectives and action steps should be prepared for the next supervision period. The updating process should be an opportunity to provide formalized feedback to persons on supervision on their efforts and accomplishments.
