LEXINGTON, KY – (April, 2015) Lexington-based software and services company Corrisoft has been chosen to directly service the Kentucky Department of Corrections (DOC) contract supporting over 200 participants and more than 600 probation and parole officers throughout the state of Kentucky. The 18-month, exclusive contract commenced on January 1.
Corrisoft will provide RF and GPS tracking devices to support home incarceration and electronic monitoring services for the Division of Probation and Parole.
“We are pleased to support the state of Kentucky’s efforts to manage offenders and support their monitoring and integration back into society,” said Corrisoft President Bill Johnson.
Corrisoft offers multiple solutions for the corrections industry, including state-of-the-art electronic monitoring, innovative software and support services for ex-offenders re-entering society. Corrisoft’s AIR (Alternative to Incarceration via Rehabilitation) platform uses a GPSenabled smartphone to link offenders, supervising agency personnel and Corrisoft’s re-entry specialists via a small, secure AIR Connect bracelet that tethers the phone to the user. The state-of-the-art technology provides support services for offenders while increasing accountability as they re-enter society after incarceration.
