Portland, Oregon, United States

Program Coordinator for the Child Support Deferred Sentencing (CSDS) program.

I managed a racially diverse caseload of justice-involved individuals (JIIs) and met with them on a regular basis. I wrote reports to the court and Parole Board and requested warrants when needed. I conducted home visits and monitored condition compliance. I also connected JIIs to culturally relevant community resources. I maintained detailed caseload.

I worked specifically with clients who are assigned to the Driving Under the Influence (DUI), Reduced Supervision, and Restitution caseloads. I met weekly with clients to discuss and problem-solve barriers to completing probation/parole requirements. I conducted monthly orientations and monitor clients’ substance abuse treatment and other court-ordered.

Oregon City, OR

I notified probation/parole officers of their clients’ arrivals, sorted and distributed legal materials, and answered various community corrections questions. I frequently used the database systems DOC, eCourts, and the Law Enforcement Database System (LEDS). As a member of the community service team, I inputted new court orders, PO sanctions, and work.
