Sažetak
Although the first Probation Act was passed towards the end of 2009 which set the legal foundation for the development of the probation service in the Republic of Croatia, the probation service’s work in fact started in 2011 when probation officers in probation offices began working with offenders. The paper analyses the challenges, from frequent changes in the organisational form to changes in laws and bylaws, which the service faced during the first 10 years of its existence, and the ways in which it addressed them. The paper further presents the development of the probation service in the Republic of Croatia, the presentation of treatments and basic statistical indicators related to its work, the achievements to date through the presentation of completed projects financed through European funds, but also international successes and recognition and awards for its successful work during the previous period. In conclusion, the paper argues that the service has laid an excellent foundation for its future growth and development, and gives directions for the further advancement of the probation service in the Republic of Croatia.
