The Juvenile Intensive Probation Supervision (JIPS) program annual information is divided into eight components: County Descriptors, New Cases, Contacts, Activity, Financial, Subsequent Offenses, Cases Closed, and Fiscal Year Statewide Comparisons.
The data in the annual report are drawn from the Juvenile On Line Tracking System (JOLTS) and Maricopa County's integrated Court Information System (iCIS). Each Department is responsible for entering the information that makes this report possible. Probation officers or support staff enters the information. This task is an extremely important link in creating this annual report, as well as many other reports published by this office. JOLTS and iCIS, however, are much more than a data collection and reporting systems. JOLTS and iCIS are necessary and effective tools utilized daily by juvenile probation personnel statewide to more efficiently and appropriately manage probation caseloads. JJSD appreciates the effort necessary to ensure the data are correctly entered in a timely manner.
