Which is the fourth goal of Core Comp?

• A. New Arrivals
• B. TRAS
• C. Program Referrals
• D. Drug Testing

Answer: (C)

The main idea here is that supervising officers focus on linking offenders to services that address underlying risk factors and support their successful reintegration. The fourth goal centers on Program Referrals, which means systematically identifying a supervisee’s needs and connecting them to appropriate programs—such as substance abuse treatment, mental health services, vocational training, education, housing assistance, or cognitive-behavioral therapy.

This emphasis makes supervision proactive about rehabilitation, not just monitoring. While New Arrivals relates to intake processes, and TRAS might cover tracking or assessment activities, and Drug Testing is a key supervision tool, none of these alone embodies the ongoing service connection that Program Referrals provide. Referrals operationalize the support structure that helps reduce risk and improve compliance, which is why they are designated as the fourth goal.
