Abstract

The author led two missions to develop and implement National Standards for the case management of juvenile offenders in the Turkish Probation Service (TPS). Although nominally two separate missions, they formed part of a three-phase project. A two-week development event in 2009 was followed by an implementation and consultation period of just short of a year, and a one-week review session, leading to adoption early in 2010. The initial two-week event was commissioned both to develop the standards and to begin to address the process of measuring performance against them.
