It is currently led by the Division Director Geri Miller-Fox[1] and is headquartered in the Utah Department of Corrections Administration Building in Draper.[2]

Community Correctional Center Facilities
Adult Probation and Parole, operates five residential community correctional centers in Utah for offenders who are on probation or who have recently paroled from prison.

Fortitude Treatment Center (FTC)
FTC houses parolees who have been released from the prison and are in need of help to transition into the community. It's also dedicated to helping men who have violated their parole and are at risk of being return to prison.
