Preferred term

project safeway  

Definition

  • Project Safeway began in Chicago, Illinois, in the early 1990s and was created through a partnership between the Cook County Adult Probation Department (CCAPD), Treatment Alternatives to Street Crime (TASC), and The Safer Foundation. The program rested on the notion that probation is inherently community-based and should therefore be decentralized to create stronger links among community members, nonprofit agencies, community organizations, and probation. [Source: Encyclopedia of Community Corrections; Project Safeway]
