MAKING A DIFFERENCE WITH THOSE CONSIDERED THE WORST OF THE WORST
Joe LaFratta will tell you that he ‘fell into’ what became his specialty during his 30-year career as a United States Probation Officer. To hear his story, there is no doubt that he made a difference in many lives, while navigating a subject that for most, is difficult at best. Although retired, Joe continues his work through his mentorship with the organization, Recovery Works, and consulting with those State and Federal courts and organizations who need his years of expertise. With 2.9 million people in the U.S. on overall probation, Joe’s career history and experience is highly regarded.
