(2) reduce court commitments to the state prisons through diversion of offenders determined appropriate by the community corrections board to community corrections facilities and programs;
(3) reduce the use of jail space for offenders who need a structured environment, treatment, counseling, and supervision but who may not require incarceration;
(4) provide a local facility for employed offenders so that they may maintain their employment under a structured environment and receive treatment, counseling, and supervision;
(5) provide a procedure by which units of local government, tribal governments, and nongovernmental agencies may provide corrections services to the sentencing courts; and
(6) include citizen participation in the policymaking and program planning related to community corrections facilities and programs through the formation of local community corrections boards.
