The probation officers who are performing the duties of "intake" are responsible for meeting with court-supervised individuals at their initial appointment. During this session, a risk needs assessment is conducted. Based on the individual's score, they are assigned to a probation officer. Those who score low and are considered to have low risk are then assigned to the intake officers' caseloads. These caseloads have been structured to accommodate a larger number of low-risk individuals with reduced reporting standards.
