American Probation and Parole Association
The American Probation and Parole Association (APPA) is a national organization that supports professionals who work in probation and parole services. It promotes effective practices in community supervision to help individuals reintegrate into society after incarceration. APPA provides resources, training, and advocacy to improve the justice system and enhance public safety. By focusing on rehabilitation rather than punishment, the organization aims to reduce recidivism and support the successful transition of offenders back into their communities. Through collaboration and research, APPA strives to create a fairer and more effective probation and parole system in the United States.
