Case management is an essential resource for enhancing the effectiveness of our criminal justice system. It is introduced early in the criminal case process, offering defendants the opportunity to be released into the community to serve their sentence. This not only allows them to maintain employment and access rehabilitative services aimed at changing behavior, but also contributes to reducing overcrowding in the Lancaster County Jail.

This role is a key part of community corrections, involving a range of rehabilitation and support strategies to assist clients. The work includes managing a caseload of adult defendants facing felony and misdemeanor charges, while closely monitoring their compliance with court-ordered conditions.
