Abstract: 

Family involvement, support, and encouragement are crucial to the successful reintegration of offenders. In an effort to assist those who are trying to help sons, daughters, and friends, we offer the following overview of services available through CSOSA’s Community Supervision Officers (CSOs; known elsewhere as parole and probation officers), the professionals supervising the offender. For agencies serving offenders in community supervised release, this article can serve as a template for community with the family members of your case loads.
