Juvenile Intensive Supervision Probation

The Juvenile Intensive Supervision Program (JISP) is an American Correction Association accredited program that was developed to provide an alternative for juvenile offenders in lieu of removal from the home. JISP is designed to provide structured and frequent contacts with an Intensive Supervision Officer (ISO). The ISO also initiates contact with:

  • Schools
  • Family members
  • Employers
  • Treatment providers
  • Significant others

Strict compliance with the court-ordered plan of probation and JISP supervision guidelines is imperative. All clients participate in counseling directed by the court. They observe a curfew and are tested frequently for drug and alcohol use. Clients participate in community service as well as a Lifeskills program.

ISOs also supervise individuals on post supervision from the Kansas State Juvenile Correctional Facilities. JISP has a level system that allows clients to work their way through the program. While on the first level, they will meet with their ISO three times per week. The number of times they report decreases with the progression of levels. JISP is typically used for:

  • High risk offenders
  • High need offenders
  • Offenders which have been adjudicated of serious offenses

JISP has a number of services that can be accessed to ensure the clients are provided the skills necessary to reduce the probability of their continued delinquent behavior.
