Three new enhancements to the Protection Order Registry were deployed on Friday, April 15, 2011.

The first enhancement is a “victim notification” service which allows the petitioner to be notified when their order of protection has been granted, served and will terminate.  The termination notification will be sent 60 days prior to the actual expiration date.  Also, the notification can be sent via e-mail, text or fax, and will only be sent if requested by the petitioner.Read More

At the April 12^th Stakeholders meeting, attendees were provided with details on enhancements currently in development for two of JTAC’s many technology initiatives.

LaJuan Epperson reported on upgrades being made to the Protective Order Registry (POR) software which are ready to be deployed.  The first enhancement will allow the user the option to print orders in an English/Spanish version, and a second enhancement will allow the petitioner to be notified by text, e-mail or fax that their order has been issued, served, and will terminate.  Additionally, JTAC plans to launch a POR Public Search site this month.  This new site will be piloted by domestic violence advocates throughout the state.Read More

By end-of-year 2010, JTAC reached its goal to have over 200 Law Enforcement Agencies throughout the state trained to use its electronic Citation and Warning System (eCWS).  Today, the total number of agencies trained or using eCWS stands at 206.

In the last two weeks training was conducted for Hartford City Police Department (Blackford County), Bourbon Police Department (Marshall County), Marian University Police Department (Marion County), and Remington Police Department (Jasper County). Read More

Although the INcite Risk Assessment Application was first launched in September of last year, JTAC has been continuously working on the  development of new features as well as additional testing of the overall application.   Upon successful completion of the second pilot phase in January, JTAC subsequently made the application available to all probation and community corrections staff statewide.  The final pilot phase, which includes users from the Indiana Department of Correction, is now underway and is expected to continue over the next several weeks.  To date, there are 740 users of the Risk Assessment application representing all 92 counties in Indiana.Read More

On November 10^th JTAC and the Indiana Judicial Center began the pilot phase for adult users of the INcite Risk Assessment Application by collaborating with the Morgan County and Hendricks County adult probation departments.  Similar to the juvenile risk assessment tools, the adult tools are administered by individuals supervising or overseeing offenders throughout Indiana.  This includes users from the pre-trial process, community supervision arena, as well as the prison intake and re-entry process.  Users will utilize the INcite Risk Assessment Application as an electronic means for scoring and storing the risk assessment information.

JTAC extends its thanks to the staff of the Morgan County and Hendricks County adult probation departments for participating in the second pilot phase of this new Risk Assessment application.
