Oregon Revised Statutes Human Services; Juvenile Code; Corrections § 423.505

Current as of January 01, 2023 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

Because counties are in the best position for the management, oversight and administration of local criminal justice matters and for determining local resource priorities, it is declared to be the legislative policy of this state to establish an ongoing partnership between the state and counties and to finance with appropriations from the General Fund statewide community correction programs on a continuing basis. The intended purposes of this program are to:

(1) Provide appropriate sentencing and sanctioning options including incarceration, community supervision and services;

(2) Provide improved local services for persons charged with criminal offenses with the goal of reducing the occurrence of repeat criminal offenses;

(3) Promote local control and management of community corrections programs;

(4) Promote the use of the most effective criminal sanctions necessary to protect public safety, administer punishment to the offender and rehabilitate the offender;

(5) Enhance, increase and support the state and county partnership in the management of offenders; and

(6) Enhance, increase and encourage a greater role for local government and the local criminal justice system in the planning and implementation of local public safety policies.
