Department Overview

The Rice County Department of Community Corrections works closely with police, schools, victim service agencies, youth service agencies, social services and community groups to create programs for offenders and victims. Offenders under our supervision perform over 12,000 hours of free work every year on behalf of the community.

The mission of the Rice County Community Corrections Department is to enhance public safety. We do that in three major ways:

• Providing information to the criminal and juvenile court to help judges make decisions on detaining accused offenders, sentencing convicted offenders, and re-sentencing offenders who violate conditions of supervision;


• Supervising offenders and enforcing the orders of the court;


• Assisting victims and offenders by providing opportunities to repair the harm caused by crime, by providing opportunities for change, and by referring victims and offenders to other services.
