"Probation supervision" refers to the monitoring and guidance provided to individuals who have been placed on probation instead of being incarcerated. It involves regularly meeting with a probation officer who makes sure the person complies with the terms of their probation, such as abiding by all laws, attending counseling or treatment programs, and avoiding certain places or people. The probation officer's role is to support and keep the person accountable, helping them successfully complete their probation period.
