I. Incentives

Supervision, based on the principles of behavior management, moves offenders up and down the incentive/consequence ladder throughout the period of supervision. Movement throughout supervision is based on compliance with individualized case plans and behavioral contracts. The behavioral management approach uses swift, certain, and graduated responses to hold offenders accountable for their behavior, and shape their behavior.

The goal is to use incentives to hold the offender accountable and to develop intrinsic responses to situations.
