The Fifth Judicial
District Community Corrections Program (CCP) was established and began
program operations in September 1996 through grant funding under the
Comprehensive Community Corrections Act for Local Responsible Offenders
(Virginia Code Sections 53.1 - 180 through 53.1 - 185.3). This annual
grant is provided by the Department
of Criminal Justice Services (DCJS). The Fifth Judicial District
serves the Cities of Suffolk and Franklin and the Counties of Isle
of Wight and Southampton. Through agreement, the City of Suffolk serves
as the program administrator and fiscal agent for the Community Corrections
Program. The program receives support, guidance and is monitored by
the Community Criminal Justice Board (CCJB). The CCJB serves in an
advisory capacity to the CCP and provides a direct link to communities
of the Fifth Judicial District.
