6.9 Useful support service should be provided to parolees and probationers, so that their reintegration can be facilitated. One of the major challenges in this regard is that community corrections offices are severely understaffed, and that, in the majority of instances, community corrections officers are more interested in policing probationers, rather than assisting them so that their reintegration is eased. Without such services, it is unlikely that the DCS will be able to reduce the rate of recidivism.
