Nebraska Judicial Branch to Announce Probation Supervision Week

The Supreme Court will hold a proclamation ceremony announcing Nebraska Probation Supervision Week on behalf of the State Judicial Branch on Wednesday, July 20, 2022, at 2:00 p.m. The ceremony will be streamed live from the courtroom in the State Capitol.

Recognizing that July 17-23, 2022, is nationally identified as Pretrial, Probation, and Parole Supervision Week, Justice Jeffrey Funke will host the Court’s ceremony announcing the recognition of Nebraska’s probation system, urging all citizens – particularly those within the legal community – to take note of the occasion.

State probation services, which operate through the Nebraska Judicial Branch, are essential to the state court, juvenile, and criminal justice systems. Probation officers, staff, and administration exemplify community corrections at its core, accomplishing constructive change and community safety through rehabilitation, community collaboration, and partnerships with those who provide services.

Nebraska Educational Television will air the speech on NET2 as part of its regular legislative coverage, which can be viewed online: https://nebraskapublicmedia.org/en/series-media/non-series-video/nebraska-judicial-branch-probation-week-proclamation-ceremony-50018813/.
