Statement Of Purpose: Probation And Parole Officer Position
I am writing to express my interest in the recently posted Probation and Parole Officer position with the Department of Children, Youth, and Families. Although my current position doesn't directly relate to probation and parole, my overall work experience and education goals are complimentary to the Probation and Parole Officer position. At this time I am currently working as an Investigator/Paralegal at the Office of the Bar Counsel, my main objective is to review and analyze allegations of attorney misconduct; this role has truly helped me to sharpen my analytical skills. I believe in the Probation and Parole Officer position, I could put my analytical skills to work in a different way when working with probationers/parolees.

    Probation compliance is strict rule that one must follow if he or she is on probation. Some of the rules you have to comply with, is your probation officer will have you report to them on a certain day as often as requested by your probation officer. If you have some kind of illness that you cant make it or any kind of emergency, you still have to get a hold of them, and immediately schedule a new appointment. When you come see you PO officer for the fist time you will need to bring with you an ID, Proof ware you live at, if you have employment you have to show ware, if you have any treatments that are completed or if there is any changes in name, address, or phone then you will need to provide this information as well. You should never carry any firearms or be in precession of any at all times. This means no police contact of any kind as well. So basically if you don’t comply with all these rules then you ass!! Will be in the doghouse. This is what probation compliance is, to follow all and any rules while you are on probation. This also means at no time can one leave the state period!! http://www.jud.state.ct.us/faq/adultprob.html…

    I wish to attend the Fairfax County Teen Police academy this summer, because I've always had the dream of becoming a police officer. I've always wanted to give back to my community by upholding the law and to serve and protect others. With the amount of hate I see towards cops, it intrigues me to become one. It seems like people nowadays don't respect the police as much as they used to. Which is what I want to change, I want others to see that cops are the good guys and what we do is saving your life. As I've grown up, I haven't really accomplished much. My sister had a successful journey with basketball. Where as I’ve seemed to be in the shadows, not doing much. That's why I think becoming a police officer will go towards me having an impactful…
