The Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency is a federal, executive branch entity providing parole and probation services to Washington, D.C. CSOSA prides itself in implementing state-of-the-art supervision, treatment and technology services.
SMART is the agency’s data tracking system. SMART-STAT analyizes data to allow executives, middle management and line staff to make the best decisions to protect public safety and provide needed treatment services.
SMART-STAT sessions bring all parties to the table (including human resources, budget, and general counsel in addition to supervisvion operations) with a uniform understanding of the data to make decisions. All levels of the organization from line staff to senior management are held accountable for results.
SMART and SMART-STAT and the use of additional CSOSA technologies (GPS tracking, drug testing, employment, treatment, educational data and more) resulted in the production of this video by SAS, a contractor providing business intelligence software. CSOSA uses SAS software to manage and analyize data. CSOSA does not and cannot endorse any commercial product.

Transcript: And I always used to sing it because I have a junior and this is who I’m really trying to call out to. Yeah we worry; it’s a constant worry. You worry and you try to hide it, but when you sleep at night, it’s in the back part of your mind. I love my sons to death. It’s all I have. My sons and my wife, that’s my family. We all make mistakes. Correct your mistakes and when you make it right, you feel better about yourself.

Transcript: It’s kind of embarrassing to have authorities come and bang on your door at 4:00 o’clock, 3 o’clock in the morning because they have a warrant to serve, to pick up one of your sons. I’m not in this by myself. There are a lot of families going through what I’m going through right now. You know, this running and hiding and ducking is not living. Turn yourself in. Do the right thing.
