The California Association of Pretrial Services (CAPS) is a membership organization of professionals founded in 1985. Its mission is to promote professional competence; to encourage the exchange of ideas; to sponsor training and education programs for professionals and the public; to support expansion of pretrial services in California; to promote research; and to develop standards. This is the association’s first effort to develop standards and to recommend program practices and procedures. They are intended as a benchmark, a tool to measure progress of a pretrial services agency. The Standards also serve as a guideline for districts without pretrial services. They are designed to conform to California’s statutes and criminal justice practices. |
