AFFIRMED

Maria Isabel Perales ("Perales") appeals the trial court's judgment revoking her probation and sentencing her to two years confinement in a state jail facility. In her sole point of error, Perales contends that the trial court abused its discretion in revoking her community supervision based, in part, on her failure to report because she was not informed of the dates she was to report to her probation officer. However, Perales pled true to violating two other conditions of her probation, including testing positive for a controlled substance and failing to perform community service. "[P]roof of any single alleged violation of a condition of probation is sufficient to support revocation." Duke v. State, 2 S.W.3d 512, 517 (Tex. App.--San Antonio 1999, no pet.). A plea of true, standing alone, is sufficient proof of a violation. Hays v. State, 933 S.W.2d 659, 661 (Tex. App.--San Antonio 1996, no pet.). Because Perales pled true to violating two conditions of her probation, the trial court did not abuse its discretion in revoking her probation. The trial court's judgment is affirmed.
