Longmont Municipal Probation Department
The primary function of the
Longmont Municipal Probation Department is to reduce recidivism and
criminal behavior. To accomplish this, Probation Officers often find
they must strike a difficult balance between punishment and rehabilitation.
For the safety of the community, Probation Officers must ensure probationers
comply with the terms and conditions of their sentences. At the same
time, Probation Officers extend themselves to provide probationers with
the services and resources they need to become functioning members of
our community. As a service arm to the Longmont Municipal Judge, the
Probation Department provides pre-sentence investigations, supervision
and monitoring of probationers, assessment and referral to local and
state resources and restitution investigation for victims. The Probation
Department is a division under the Longmont Municipal Court, Presiding Judge Diana VanDeHey, in
and for the City of Longmont.
