What should an officer categorize as an indicator of high risk during supervision?

Frequent changes in residence are indeed an important indicator of high risk during supervision. This instability can reflect underlying issues such as homelessness, transient lifestyle choices, or difficulties in maintaining commitments, all of which can negatively impact an individual's ability to comply with the terms of their supervision.

When someone frequently moves, it may suggest challenges in establishing a support network, maintaining employment, or accessing necessary services, such as substance abuse treatment or mental health care. Stability in living circumstances is typically associated with better outcomes in rehabilitation, and an erratic residence pattern can signal that the individual may struggle to adhere to the conditions of probation or parole.

In contrast, factors like family support for recovery, having a stable job, and participation in community events typically indicate positive engagement and stability, which are crucial for successful reintegration into society. These elements contribute to a supportive environment that can aid in reducing recidivism and promoting adherence to supervision conditions.
