Probation, or Community Supervision, in the State of Texas is an alternative to incarceration in a jail or prison. Community Supervision is an opportunity to make positive changes in the lives of Probationers.

There are two types of probation:

Regular - criminal history will reflect a conviction

Deferred Adjudication - criminal history will reflect the arrest

Probationers are able to remain in the community, work, and be with families and friends as long as the conditions of probation are being abided. Community Supervision Officers (CSOs) are assigned to Probationers to monitor compliance of conditions of probation and to take appropriate actions when Probationers fail to comply with those conditions. CSOs are assigned to assist probationers in becoming successful while on probation.
