About Community Corrections

Community Corrections in Oregon is a function of state government operated in partnership with local, county-operated community corrections agencies. Of Oregon's 36 counties, the Department of Corrections (DOC) operates Community Corrections in Linn and Douglas counties.

Community Corrections activities include supervision, community-based sanctions, and services directed at adults on supervision who have committed felony and certain misdemeanor crimes and have been placed under community supervision by the courts.

Community Corrections can be used as an alternative or enhancement to incarceration. Based on many different factors, some adults on supervision are given a community-based sentence without serving time in a correctional facility; this is commonly known as probation.

Other adults on supervision are sentenced to serve a predetermined number of months in a correctional facility before beginning a community-based sentence—known as either parole or post-prison supervision, depending on the crime commission date.

There are approximately 30,000 adults on supervision under supervision in Oregon communities and 12,000 adults in custody serving time in one of Oregon’s 12 prisons.
