A group of his peers (the California State Sheriff’s Association) as appointed Orange County Sheriff Michael Carona as the Association’s only representative on the California Rehabilitation Oversight Board.

Assembly Bill 900 (the Public Safety and Offender Rehabilitation Services Act of 2007) created the California Rehabilitation Oversight Board (C-ROB) within the Office of the Inspector General. CROB’s mandate is to regularly examine the various mental health, substance abuse, educational, and employment programs for inmates and parolees operated by the Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (department).

Sheriff Carona is the only Sheriff on the 11-member board that is chaired by the Inspector General. “By investing in the recovery and rehabilitation of inmates while incarcerated, we dramatically reduce the likelihood that they will re-offend”, said Sheriff Carona.

“This program is a huge step forward in stopping the revolving door,” Sheriff Carona said.

“Whether it is learning a skill or a trade, inmate labor, educational services, or substance abuse

rehabilitation, our focus is to ensure the inmates in our care make productive use of their time,"
