Community Criminal Justice Board

General Purpose

On July 1, 1995, the General Assembly enacted legislation requiring each jurisdiction to create a local Community Criminal Justice Board (CCJB) upon the development of a local pretrial services or a community-based probation program.

The purpose of the Community Criminal Justice Board shall be to enable Loudoun County to develop, establish, administer, monitor, and maintain community-based corrections programs for certain individuals who meet the eligibility criteria established under Section 19.2-303.3 of the Code of Virginia or other applicable provisions of state law. The programs so established should effect the following purposes:

  • To allow localities greater flexibility and involvement responding to the problem of crime in their communities;

  • To provide more effective protection of society and to promote efficiency and economy in the delivery of correctional services;

  • To provide increased opportunities for offenders to make restitution to victims of crimes through financial reimbursement or community services;

  • To permit localities to operate and utilize local community-based probation programs and services specifically designed to meet the rehabilitative needs of selected offenders; and

  • To provide appropriate post-sentencing alternatives in localities for certain offenders with the goal of reducing the incidence of repeat offenses.

Biennial Plan

Section 9.1-175 of the Code of Virginia requires that each CCJB must adopt and approve a Biennial Plan of its objectives and goals, and the strategies for implementing the programs and meeting the objectives and goals of the CCJB.

There are ten mandated members and nine additional members. These additional members are appointed at-large, one by each member of the Board of Supervisors.

Meetings

Meetings are held the second Wednesday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the Leesburg Room of the Loudoun County Government Center, 1 Harrison Street, S.E., in Leesburg, and are open to the public.
