Successful monitoring of sex offenders in the community involves various partnerships in the community.

Such partnerships can exist between and among various segments of the community including:

• Treatment Providers
• Landlords
• Probation/Parole Officers
• Block Watchers
• Defense and Prosecuting Attorneys
• Job Supervisors
• Family and Friends
• Victims’ Rights Advocates
• Law Enforcement Officers
• Courts/Judges
• Schools

Effective Partnerships mean that the community can exercise early interventions in the offender’s deviant lifestyle when the behaviors are not yet criminal in nature.
