Indiana Department of Corrections officials are calling Daviess County one of the best community correction programs in the state. State officials not only praised the program but also brought along a $25,523.22 check as a performance grant award. "We use Daviess County as an example," said Indiana Department of Corrections Commissioner Bruce Lemmon. "They do an excellent job. In Indiana, 88 of the 92 counties have community corrections programs and only 20 received performance bonuses. This is the second year for Daviess County." "We're very proud of the work we do here and so is our community corrections advisory board," said Diana Snyder with Daviess County Community Corrections. "We look forward to continuing to provide services to our clients." The performance grants were based on several criteria. Those include the county's annual grant application (Daviess County receives $200,000 from DOC to operate the program), a site assessment of the operations, the county's compliance in reporting and the number of D-level felons the community corrections program takes on compared to the number it sends on to prison.
