DRIVING SUCCESS THROUGH COLLABORATIONS
MAX-OUT RE-ENTRY
For each person who comes under our
supervision, DCS seeks to meet them
where they are and identify available
resources that will help them overcome
their individual risks and needs.
Whatever someone needs, be it a copy
of their birth certificate, a place to
live, a license or a job, our Community
Supervision Officers call out to networks
of resource partners to try to find ways
to help supervised individuals succeed.
Max-Out Re-Entry (M.O.R.E.) is a collaborative program between the
Georgia Department of Community Supervision, Georgia Department of
Corrections, and Georgia State Board of Pardons and Paroles, designed to
provide max-out offenders with a progressive transition back into society.
M.O.R.E allows for statutory and board mandated max-out prisoners
to relocate from a prison bed to intensive community supervision in a
transition center up to 18 months before the completion of their prison
sentence.
The success of this program is due to the guidance M.O.R.E. officers
provide to participants, helping pave the way for them to find success as
they reenter their communities. During their last months in incarceration,
M.O.R.E. participants live in a Georgia Department of Corrections’
transition center. While under intensive supervision, they have the
opportunity to:
