Welcome
We welcome you to the Bucks County Adult Probation and Parole Department. The purpose of this site is to help you understand who we are and what we do, answer questions you may have, and provide an opportunity for you to interact with us.
We are totally committed to public safety, and are best known through our excellent professional staff of Probation Officers, Secretaries and Managers. We truly value the commitment and integrity of our staff. We take pride in the variety of our backgrounds and the multidisciplinary experience brought to probation and parole supervision. Not only do our Probation Officers come from Criminal Justice Backgrounds, they also come from the social service fields. Many have Master's degrees, in a variety of fields (Social Work, Public Administration, Counseling, etc.). Our staff also continues their professional development through involvement in associations such as the American Probation and Parole Association; the Pennsylvania Association on Probation, Parole and Correction; the Middle Atlantic States Correctional Association; and the American Corrections Association as well as a variety of associations in other disciplines.
We hope that you find this site helpful to you.
