The Tennessee Department of Correction (TDOC) has launched a number of mobile community supervision units aimed at “making it easier for individuals on probation and parole in rural areas to meet supervision requirements and access critical resources.” There currently are two mobile units in operation, with plans to add a third, according to a Nashville Banner newsletter. The units are large trucks equipped with workspace for up to four officers and a private meeting area, according to the department, which also released a video about the units. As of April, the state was supervising more than 75,000 people on probation or parole.
