The system has five components: case classification based on risk/need assessment, a standard client management classification system (CMCS), workload-based budgeting and equalization, a management information system, and an accountability sytem for evaluating program and staff performance. The CMCS uses a 45-minute interview to assign clients to one of five supervision levels. The interview elicits information on attitude, background and offense history, interview behavior, and an appraisal of significant factors. A companion supervision planning guide described behavioral characteristics of clients in each profile group and suggests methods of supervision for each group. On the basis of this information, a time-framed, objective-based written supervision plan is developed that is appropriate to the strategy group and the client's individual profile. An analysis of outcomes for 2,551 cases released between March and April 1985 indicates that cases processed using the CMCS had significantly lower prerevocation warrant rates for both poor and fair risk cases than did those not classified by the CMCS. CMCS also appears to lower the percentage of high-risk cases returning to prison for parole violations. 2 tables, 1 figure, and 4 references.
