Criminal Justice Services Launches New Public Safety Assessment Tool
After two years of study, training, meetings and workshops, the Prince William County Criminal Justice Services team is ready to introduce its Public Safety Assessment (PSA) tool. The PSA is designed to determine whether people charged with crimes can be released back into the community pending trial. Prince William County is only one of five communities in Virginia which will be piloting the tool, and the first in the state to do so.
“The new PSA will go a long way toward keeping people with their families so they can get needed support from the community and the programs that are designed to help,” said County Executive Chris Shorter. “I want to commend the staff and all of those who worked so hard to design and implement the PSA, which will benefit the community in so many ways. It’s a great example of how the county is implementing innovative, human-centered approaches to serving the community.”
