Abstract

Probation is a way of decongesting the penal institution and jail facilities because of its type of correction in the community. It is one of the programs of community-based corrections by letting the convicts out after the declaration of their final judgment. This study focuses on the treatment and acceptance of the community towards the probationer as they reintegrate back into the community. It explored the relationship of the family and community to the probationer’s success in finishing the entire probation program. It explored the coping mechanism of probationers in dealing with challenges. A case study research design with Yin’s5-step data analysis approach was used in generating the theme with the use of an interview protocol in gathering the data. The data gathered resulted in the discovery of five (5) themes, namely: Reconciliation and Acceptance with the Family; Good Community Relations; Positive Mindset; Self-Actualization; and Difficulties in Landing a Desired Jobs.Despiteall of thegoodcommunity feedback are, development of problem is still visible like their difficulties in landing a job. Probationers may continue to become positive and build continuing stronger relationships with the community. In conclusion, the support of the community is essential to the probationers, especially the family’s support, it leaves a big impact on the successful completion of the probation period. Probation Officers or the government may conduct symposiums in the community to orient and educate the people in the community that probationers are trying to change themselves and it will be successful with the support of the community. The community may also support and accept the probationers as they are.
