Title: The Virginia Parole Board — The Board’s mission is to grant parole to those offenders whose release is compatible with public safety.

URL: https://vpb.virginia.gov/

Collection: Virginia State Government Website Archive

Description: The Virginia Parole Board was established by law in 1942. It is composed of five members appointed by the Governor to serve at the pleasure of the Governor. The General Assembly has given the Parole Board authority to grant parole, to deny parole, to detain parole violators, and to revoke parole. Virginia Code Section 53.1-136 empowers the Board to make the following decisions for persons who committed their crime prior to January 1, 1995: to conditionally release offenders who are parole eligible, and found suitable for release to revoke parole and post release supervision of those under supervision found to be in violation of the terms of their release, and to investigate, prepare reports and advise the Governor, when requested, on Executive Clemencies. Virginia Code Section 53.1-40.01 also makes the Parole Board responsible to act on geriatric requests for conditional release. Following the Board's decision to grant an offender parole, the offender must agree to abide by specific conditions in return for the opportunity to serve the remainder of his or her sentence under supervision in the community. This creates a contractual agreement between the Parole Board and the offender. Parole supervision is carried out for the Virginia Parole Board by the probation and parole officers of the Virginia Department of Corrections.
