Abstract
This article reports the results of a nation-wide survey of parole policies on unmarried cohabitation by parolees. The survey found that approximately half of the parole depart ments generally forbid cohabitation by the unmarried parolee. The results are analyzed in detail. The ramifications of parole policies are examined from the perspective of two major pur poses of parole—rehabilitation and the protection of the com munity—and are also considered from the point of view of the parolee's "significant others."
