July 18, 2024 – The Lincoln County Board of Commissioners proclaimed July 21-27,
2024, to be Probation, Parole, and Community Supervision Week in Lincoln County,
recognizing the many contributions of the county’s parole and probation officers, who
supervise approximately 450 justice-involved adults and juveniles in our community.
These professionals work with the Oregon Department of Corrections and Criminal
Justice Commission, Circuit Courts, Lincoln County District Attorney’s Office, mental
health providers, substance abuse treatment providers, and other community partners
to make referrals and create opportunities for justice-involved individuals that reduce
criminal activity and recidivism, as well as make effective use of public resources.
According to Lincoln County Community Justice Director Tony Campa, his department’s
staff work within Oregon’s changing criminal justice landscape, adapting to legislative
and regulatory changes to provide the appropriate level of intervention and behaviorchange services for all their clients.
“I greatly admire our staff and their efforts on behalf of the people we serve,” Campa
said.
Commissioners unanimously approved the Probation, Parole, and Community
Supervision Week proclamation during their regular meeting Wednesday, July 17.
“I want to recognize our Community Justice team and their partners for leading the way
in alternatives to incarceration,” Commission Chair Casey Miller said. “Their dedication
to providing accountability as well as access to opportunities has enabled many
pathways to a more successful, enriching life for community members involved in the
justice system.”
To celebrate Probation, Parole, and Community Supervision Week, the public is invited
to a barbecue outside the Community Justice office in Newport on Wednesday, July 24.
Everyone is welcome to come to 218 W. Olive St. between 11 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. to
enjoy hamburgers and hotdogs with all the fixings.
