Abstract

Since the initial labors of John Augustus until today, we have witnessed the evolution of community based supervision. Travel through time as we reflect and discuss the issues of leadership, supervision, political climates and correctional philosophies of the past and present. This session will explore bold strategies and thought provoking recommendations that prepare us for the challenges of the future.
