Pretrial Supervision Program
The Pretrial Supervision Program aids the courts in the initial processing of defendants, reducing jail overcrowding, and upholding public safety. The program accomplishes these tasks through screening defendants and providing background information to the judiciary at court hearings as well as maintaining supervision of defendants awaiting trial.
Local Offender Probation Services
The Local Offenders Probation Program (also referred to as the Community Corrections Program) provides short-term supervision and services primarily for post-adjudication misdemeanor offenders. These offenders are court-ordered into the program and given a deferred or suspended sentence pending successful participation.
Domestic Violence Help & Support Services
If you or someone you care about is in a situation involving domestic violence, services are available to help. Learn more about specific services in the Prince William area that are available. If you’re in an emergency situation, dial 911.
