Development/Implementation of Retention Strategies for Probation Officers

<p>The goal of this project is to develop retention strategies for officers to accomplish the mission of the South Carolina Department of Juvenile Justice. There are three reasons why this is a problem. First juveniles and families are not being served or are being inappropriately served due to shortage of staff. Secondly there is a high level of stress on remaining employees that are burdened with the distribution of departed employee's workload. This has an impact on the morale in the office. Finally the high cost for turnover is detrimental with focuses on the taxpayer's and agency's dollars.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
