Together, the staff has more than 400 years of experience and actively educates and provides direction to the local law enforcement and criminal justice system. The goal is to work with organizations to ensure they make informed decisions that reduce incarceration and recidivism. They offer a unique service of electronic monitoring throughout the state and in Western Minnesota.
The GPS monitoring and remote alcohol testing provide intensive supervision to track the location of individuals who are restricted to their residences. Electronic monitoring programs communicate with a central computer and include GPS to detect your location. Smartphone mobile applications or voice recognition may be used to also periodically check in. Electronic monitoring may be a condition of post conviction supervision or pretrial release. It can be used to reduce prison overcrowding, track juveniles, reduce recidivism, or track adults in drug rehabilitation programs, including those convicted of DUIs.
In addition to the testing, seminars, education, and evaluation, they also provide mental health services that include relapse prevention programs and cognitive restructuring courses. Their services address substance use disorders and mental health conditions for adults, teens, and couples. You can book classes or evaluations online. Each of the services is provided by appointment only and you must prepay.
