Tim Moose named acting director for Community Corrections

RALEIGH – Correction Secretary Alvin Keller today named Tim Moose acting director of the Division of Community Corrections.  Moose will oversee the operations of the state’s probation and parole system while work begins to find a new leader for the division.

Moose is a 25-year probation veteran who began his career in 1984 as a probation officer in Wake County.  During his tenure he has managed the division’s electronic house arrest program, intensive supervision programs and special operations.   He most recently served as a special assistant handling the division’s legislative and policy issues.

A permanent director of Community Corrections will not be named immediately.  Secretary Keller and his staff will meet this week with officials from the National Institute of Corrections who reviewed North Carolina’s probation operations last summer, to discuss their findings and recommendations.
