Supervision Tools for Those That Require Less Intensive Monitoring
Research shows that one-size-fits-all supervision programs don’t work. In fact, lower- and mid-risk clients can experience negative outcomes when supervision isn’t proportional to their level of offense. Too intensive monitoring and overly harsh sanctions can result in an increase in criminal behavior, difficulty maintaining employment, and may disrupt prosocial relationships. The most effective and cost-efficient programs tailor supervision requirements to fit each individual client’s risk and need.
The SCRAM Systems suite of alcohol and location monitoring devices, software, and mobile apps can be used in any combination to help ensure clients comply with the conditions of their supervision while improving public safety. Our solutions give officers the data they need to easily assess an individual’s risk and need and provide flexible supervision tools for the continuum of clients to help them get and stay on track.

It’s important for [a monitoring] program to be rigorous enough so that [clients] think ‘I don’t want to go through it again.’ And at the same time, when they successfully complete the program, they can also say they’ve done something good for their lives.
– Wilbert Pryor, Chief Deputy District Attorney, Caddo Parish, LA
