About Probation

Welcome to the Alameda County Probation Department’s website.  Whether you are visiting this site for specific information or interested in becoming a part of our team, I hope you find the topic areas contained within this website to be informative and useful.

WE ARE COMMITTED TO BEING AN ORGANIZATION THAT:

• empowers staff and promotes respectful, forthright communication;
• engages collaboratively with our stakeholders and the community;
• promotes diversity and cultural awareness;
• embodies integrity and ethical conduct;
• uses research and data to inform practice;
• provides gender-responsive and trauma-informed care;
• strives for continuous process improvements through innovation driven by performance-based operations; and
• honors the belief that people can change

This Plan was developed by a Strategic Planning Committee (Committee), consisting of a cross-section of Department employees and union representatives, over the course of seven months. As part of the process, the Committee conducted research; solicited focus group, executive management, and external stakeholder input; considered the Alameda County 2016–17 Grand Jury Report; and reviewed staff survey responses. The final product is robust and a culmination of our shared vision of service, our community partnerships, and public safety.

Alameda County Probation Department is actively recruiting dedicated individuals determined to make a difference in their community in the Deputy Probation Officer and Juvenile Institutional Officer series. Recruitment staff are available for presentations at career fairs, community festivals, classroom settings and more!
