Story Behind the Curve
Point-in-time quarterly counts are provided using available data from the last day (or closest to last day) of each quarter (e.g., point-in-time counts are for 09/21/2022 for Q1, 12/31/2022 for Q2, 03/31/2023 for Q3, 06/30/2023 for Q4).
For FY23 (July 2022-June 2023), the number of supervised individuals on parole decreased by 21.2%. There were on average 758 supervised individuals on parole each quarter (min: 690 in Q4, max: 876 in Q1). Individuals on parole constituted 20.3% of the FY23 population under community supervision.
The FY23 counts adopt a revised methodology for parole counts, which excludes absconders as well as individuals who are authorized to travel or relocate across state lines (Interstate Compact Offender Tracking System, ICOTS). When this revised methodology is applied to FY22, the trend still shows a steady decline across all four quarters. This trend continues into FY23, with the steepest decline occurring in the first half of the fiscal year.
