"AUTO Screener is an 'intelligent' assessment tool that determines the appropriate level of supervision for offenders and recommends treatment and support services to meet the offender's needs. Based on extensive historical and social data entered in a structured interview with a CSO, the AUTO Screener generates a prescriptive supervision plan that contains support service recommendations.
Thomas Williams, Associate Director for Community Supervision Services, sums up the value of this new tool: "Through a combination of logic, rules, and formulas, AUTO Screener is able to derive a total score and a list of prescriptive treatments and supervision recommendations. Supervision officers can quickly determine the appropriate treatment and supervision level for the offender. Auto Screener allows quantitative intelligence to provide quality supervision and treatment services better, faster and more accurately. "
