Community Supervision Staff Trauma and Organizational Stress Needs Assessment

This needs assessment was developed by Rulo Strategies LLC and the National Center for State Courts with the support of the National Institute of Corrections (NIC). The needs assessment was deployed as part of a cooperative agreement designed to develop responses to staff trauma and organizational stress in community supervision agencies. The information gathered in this assessment is designed to accomplish the following:

1. determine what strategies community supervision agencies are using to mitigate and respond to staff trauma, organizational stress, and build staff resiliency;
2. identify innovative and promising practices that can be replicated;
3. identify training or technical assistance needs that could be addressed with the support of NIC.
