Request or Apply for Technical Assistance
Corrections and community supervision agency administrators can maximize technical assistance through commitment to improving the use of post-conviction risk and needs assessments, transparency about processes, and overall willingness to engage, share challenges, and learn with other selected sites.
By participating in technical assistance, state, local, or Tribal jurisdictions will gain status as national leaders promoting the implementation of the guidelines, as well as priority access to peer connections and ongoing engagement, tailored technical assistance, and the opportunity to provide input for additional resources for the field.
Request Level 1 (low-intensity) technical assistance, which includes briefings about the guidelines for elected officials, requests for resources, and general questions.
Apply for Level 2 (moderate-intensity) or Level 3 (high-intensity) technical assistance:
