Mission Statement

Macomb County Community Corrections mission is to provide effective, local, community-based alternatives to incarceration that promote public safety, hold offenders accountable, and improve their ability to live lawfully and productively in the community.

 

The purpose. . .

Macomb County Community Corrections is a community based punishment and rehabilitative program aimed at relieving prison and jail overcrowding through Court-approved sentencing alternatives.

Non-violent offenders are placed into community sanctions, rather then in jail or prison, to free up corrections space for more serious offenders. Rehabilitative and monitoring options include substance abuse inpatient and outpatient treatment, daily reporting services, urine testing, community service work, job training assistance, cognitive restructuring and pre-trial release supervision.

The target population. . .

Macomb County Community Corrections is designed to deal with non-violent, non-assaultive felons and misdemeanants. The screening process for all referrals includes criminal history, jail behavior, ties to the community, employment and educational history, medical and substance abuse background, and the ability of Community Corrections staff to monitor the individual in a community setting.

Participants in Community Corrections must be diversions from jail or prison.

The programs. . .

The substance abuse program screens, assesses and develops treatment plans for sentenced and pre-sentenced offenders with substance abuse problems. Offenders may be court-ordered to residential treatment, outpatient or intensive outpatient services. Residential placements generally require a waiting period, due to bed availability and funding limitations.

The felony urinalysis program, provided at four locations in Macomb County, provides frequent, random substance abuse testing for felony probationers to determine if they are remaining free of drugs and alcohol.

The day reporting program, also available at four sites in Macomb County, provides weekday monitoring of offenders. Misdemeanor offenders and those on conditional bond may be considered for Court-ordered substance abuse testing and tether.

The residential services program
, located at different treatment facilities, provides up to 90 days of residential substance abuse treatment for felony probationers and felony probation violators.

The community service program provides free labor to non-profit community organizations, so that offenders can repay society and develop sound work habits

The cognitive restructuring treatment program provides a three month outpatient treatment program -- that re-trains offenders to develop non-criminal ways of successfully dealing with and responding to the events in their lives. There is also an eight week intensive cognitive program available for inmates in the jail..

The pre-trial services program offers bond reviews at Court request and may monitor pre-trial offenders released from incarceration pending their Court appearance.

The dual diagnosis program provides referrals/case management that includes outpatient substance abuse services (both in and out of Macomb County Jail) to dually diagnosed offenders, to include urinalysis. Their primary diagnosis is substance abuse, with a secondary mental health diagnosis.

Job training and education referrals to local resources are provided to offenders by Community Corrections staff. Offender participation may be monitored at Court request.

The process. . .

Macomb County Community Corrections accepts referrals from any source. To make a referral, simply call (586) 307-9443 Monday through Friday between 8:00 AM and 4:30 PM. Staff will review each referral and, where appropriate, develop an individualized treatment plan to be forwarded to the Court for consideration.
