Research on Sentencing and Community-Based Alternatives to Incarceration

Due 6/1/2010

NIJ seeks applications for funding for research on sentencing and community corrections policies and practices that promote effective and cost-efficient community-based alternatives to jail and prison without jeopardizing public safety. Priority research questions include what policies and practices promote effective and cost-efficient alternatives to incarceration for alcohol and other drug-involved offenders, including those with mental health (i.e., comorbid) issues; and what technological applications and protocols for assessment or monitoring support effective and cost-efficient alternatives to incarceration? The target population must include adult offenders in State, local, or Federal jurisdictions who are convicted on criminal charges and may be sentenced to jail or prison.

CAMPBELL CRIME AND JUSTICE: CALL FOR NEW TITLES

The Campbell Collaboration Crime & Justice Coordinating Group is an international network of researchers that prepares, updates, and rapidly disseminates systematic reviews of high-quality research conducted worldwide on effective methods to reduce crime and delinquency and improve the quality of justice.  We are interested in receiving title proposals for potential new systematic reviews to be registered with the Campbell Collaboration.  Such reviews should focus on a specific intervention or set of programs.

The development of a systematic review involves the proposal of a ‘title’ to the Crime and Justice Coordinating Group (David Farrington and David Weisburd, Co-Chairs), the development of a ‘protocol’ that details the topic area and methods proposed, and a final systematic review report.  Protocols and final reviews are peer-reviewed and, if approved, are published in the Campbell Collaboration Library.

For more information about proposing a title, please contact David Wilson (Editor for the Crime and Justice Coordinating Group) at dwilsonb@gmu.edu, or Charlotte Gill (Managing Editor) at gillce@sas.upenn.edu.  Information regarding the Campbell Collaboration and its Crime and Justice Group can be found at www.campbellcollaboration.org.
