Abstract

The past two decades persons in the various branches of state and local government have become increasingly aware of the need for closer integration of efforts by the welfare agencies, the county sheriffs, the local police, the courts, the correctional institutions and the parole authorities . They have come to see that justice i s of whole cloth and not made from many separate pieces. It appears, therefore, that the time has arrived for the various branches and units of government t o relate and correlate all parts into a combined operation in order to deal with the issues in crime and correction. Each branch of state government and all citizens share in the responsibility of preventing crimes and treating offenders.
