Youthful Offender Program also known as YOP or Y.O.P. is an intensive supervision program that targets high-risk youthful offenders 18 to maximum 25 years olds already imprisoned at maximum security prisons to be transferred to lower security prisons. Some programs specify a lower maximum age for eligibility of transfer varying between 21-24 instead. The focus of these programs is both community safety and offender rehabilitation.

Through the program, various Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (DCR) officials assess incoming prisoners with those eligible for YOP receiving classification at a lower security level imprisonment, with more rehabilitative programming, and safer housing environments.
