Pre-Trial Services is also referred to as the Luzerne County bail agency. This program will help reduce the inmate population of the Luzerne County Correctional Facility by providing bail supervision service while affecting the maximum delivery of community based services. Through supervision, clients will be monitored on a regular basis to aid them in becoming productive members of society.
Post-Trial Services also affects the maximum delivery of community based services to drug and alcohol impaired defendants who have consented to participate and are under the jurisdiction of the Luzerne County Court of Common Pleas, the Luzerne County Adult Probation Office and the Luzerne County Drug Treatment Court. Through intensive case management, supervision and coordinated interaction between the Post-Trial Services staff and the Luzerne County Probation Office participants will be monitored and evaluated on a regular basis. Through collaborative efforts, the cycle of recidivism will be broken and the clientele will impact society in a positive manner.
