The Interstate Compact for Adult Offender Supervision, required by state and federal laws, is responsible for tracking all supervised offenders coming into and leaving Kansas, parole National Crime Information Center warrant entries and the tracking and extradition of absconders arrested out of state. The number of courtesy supervision cases is virtually an even exchange with other states.

The Interstate Commission oversees the day-to-day oversight of the compact between the states. The Commission promulgates rules to achieve the goals of the compact and ensures an opportunity for input and timely notice to victims and to jurisdictions where defined offenders are authorized to travel or to relocate across state lines.

The Commission also monitors compliance with the rules governing interstate movement of offenders and initiate interventions to address and correct noncompliance and coordinates training and education regarding regulations of interstate movement of offenders for officials involved in such activity.
