SMART Partnership  

Definition

  • With recidivating offenders garnering national media attention, concerns of community safety, and knowledge that supervised offenders are at risk for reoffending, both local police departments and corrections officials are developing methods to enhance the supervision of offenders in the community. In response to such concerns, many cities are beginning to implement strategic plans between police departments and state corrections departments to improve their supervision of these offenders in the community.
