Mission Statement
Alternatives To Incarceration
October 2002
The Ontario County Alternatives To Incarceration Advisory Board, an advisory board for the County Board of Supervisors, has a mission to explore, develop and evaluate alternatives to incarceration that will promote and maintain public safety and confidence, support appropriate sanctioning of offenders, provide victim empathy, reduce our reliance on incarceration and increase service to offenders, while being efficient with the use of financial resources. To that end, the ATI board seeks to foster cooperation and coordination of activities and programs with agencies and individuals involved with the criminal justice system as well as the larger community in Ontario County.
