Why this is tracked

Starting in 2011, the Department of Probation created the Neighborhood Opportunity Network (NeON), which relocated probation officers into seven high-need neighborhoods, including Brownsville, East New York, Harlem, and the South Bronx, to work alongside community organizations and residents. The model is built on "community justice" and "justice reinvestment" principles: rather than treating probation solely as surveillance, it connects medium- and high-risk clients to services and opportunities meant to reduce the conditions that drive reoffending. It is part of a broader set of DOP reforms since 2010 organized around the goals of doing no harm, doing more good, and doing it in the community.
