MOHAVE COUNTY PROBATION DEPARTMENT
Probation is a court order through which an offender is placed under the control and supervision of a probation officer in lieu of imprisonment, so long as the offender meets and maintains certain standards of conduct.
The Mohave County Probation Department provides a cost-effective alternative to imprisonment that can offer restitution to a victim, provide for public safety, and restore offenders to useful and productive lives. Consequently, the primary mission of the Mohave County Probation Department is to protect the public, serve justice, and change lives.
In an effort to accomplish this mission, officers utilize evidence based practices. Evidence-based practices (EBP) are strategies that have been shown through current, scientific research to lead to a reduction in offender recidivism. These tools and techniques allow probation officers to determine the offender's risk and needs, so they can be supervised at an appropriate level, and placed into the proper programs.
If you have any questions or any issues you'd like to discuss please feel free to contact the Probation Department at (928) 753-0741.
