overcrowding. It is an extreme form of supervision where offenders are easily

substance abuse and provide counseling for other problems.

o number of face-to-face contacts between offenders and officers. The main
goal of ISP is to provide prison-like control of offenders while keeping them out of prison. ISP can also be combined with rehabilitation programs.
