PRCS subjects are supervised by the Solano County Probation Department as a result of AB109, better known in criminal justice circles as Realignment. The law, which transfers the responsibility of monitoring, rehabilitating and incarcerating certain non-violent, non-serious offenders from the State to the Counties, has affected every facet of law enforcement throughout the state. When a state prisoner is granted parole for a crime that is a non-violent, non-sexual and non-serious offense (non-non-non), they are placed on community supervision in the county in which they were convicted.
