Work Group: Findings - Probation • New admissions to probation had decreased 24 percent in the last 10 years. • Despite a decline in the share of probationers placed on higher supervision levels, the length of time spent on probation had increased from 6.3 months to 8.4 month since 2005. • Probation lengths vary greatly across circuits, ranging from around 5 months in the Third and Seventh Circuits to close to 11 months in the Fourth Circuit. 26

Work Group: Findings - Research • For most youth residential placement does not produce better outcomes than supervision in the community. – Nor do longer lengths of stay in residential settings. • Appropriately matching supervision and treatment to a youth’s risk level and needs results in a lower likelihood of future delinquent or criminal behavior. • Diversion has been found to be more effective in reducing recidivism than conventional judicial interventions . 27
