Merced County Day Reporting Center
GEO Reentry operates both a day reporting center and jail reentry program for Merced County Probation and the Merced County Sheriff’s office, respectively. This report focused primarily on adults in the DRC program. During the calendar year 2023, 262 individuals were served with an average daily population of 65. The DRC offers four tracks for individuals: traditional programming, short-term, employment and substance use. A review of a subset of the individuals in both the community and jail programs found significant reductions in criminal thinking patterns.
