  • MOCJ has developed and implemented an intense case management pilot within supervised release
  • The pilot uses a rigorous supervision model with lower caseloads and higher levels of voluntary engagement
  • Early results show success in improving compliance for individuals most at risk of failing pretrial supervision
  • A jail population review mandated by local law has helped uncover trends and specific groups to inform strategies for preventing entry or return to Rikers
