Dosage-Based Probation as an Effective Intervention

The intent of this solicitation is to expand on the foundation of work that NIC has led on offender risk reduction.

“Implementing Evidence-Based Practice in Community Corrections:
The Principles of Effective Interventions” outlines a framework of strategies that, when jurisdictions implement

credit:


them correctly, lead to reductions in offender risk.

It further suggests that these principles are in developmental order, do not operate in a vacuum, and are highly interdependent.

This project will focus on the development of the third principle, Target Interventions:
Dosage.

It will also call for the integration of dosage into the other more established principles of risk, need, and responsivity.

Dosage-based probation must be guided by the actuarial risk of the offender.

After determining the offender’s risk, it is then necessary to assess and target the individual criminogenic needs of the offender so that treatment, interventions, and conditions will match to the offender’s identified needs.

The intensity, duration, and frequency of treatment, interventions, conditions, and/or dosage should match the level of offender risk and be reassessed routinely to determine their effectiveness.
