WELCOME
Welcome to Nevada's Department of Public Safety, Division of Parole and Probation.
We are a very unique and complex operation. It is the philosophy and practice of
this Division that each offender is
responsible for his or her behavior
and for the choices they make each
day.
There are units in the Division that are tasked with the supervision of sex offenders, house arrest offenders, hardcore gang members,
mandatory release parolees, drug court and mental health court, interstate compact offenders as well as general supervision offenders.
The Division also has a training component dedicated to the training and professional growth of new officers through the use of field
training officers.
The Division of Parole and Probation (PnP) is the second largest division of the
Department of Public Safety (DPS) and growing. We are looking for bright and
talented men and women who enjoy the challenge of protecting our community
through the various strategies and programs we employ to reduce crime, and of
monitoring offenders' conduct to ensure that they practice good citizenship. We
invite you to learn more about the Division by clicking on the subject title
links listed below or to the left.
We recommend that you click on
"Overview" and
"Officer Expectations" which
will give you a very good
understanding of "who we are and
what we do". You will come away
quite impressed with the Division's
mission to protect Nevada through
our responsibility to supervise
parolees and probationers, some of
whom pose a severe risk to the
safety of our community.
The Division is made up of both sworn and non-sworn personnel and while our web site
may showcase our sworn staff, it is our non-sworn staff that also plays a vital role
in our mission. As you look around our web site and learn more about us, we hope you
will be proud that we are serving you and our community.
Again, on behalf of the men and women of the Division of Parole and Probation,
we thank you for visiting our web site. |
