During this webinar, join Dr. Rachel Brushett, Senior Policy Advisor at BJA, for an overview of the Justice Reinvestment Initiative (JRI) and to review the 2020 solicitation guidelines.
Dr. Brushett will provide a detailed explanation of the application requirements and will be available to answer specific questions.
JRI is a BJA-sponsored intensive, data-driven approach that can help state, local, and tribal justice stakeholders analyze, understand, and address key challenges in their justice systems, including violent crime, opioid addiction and mental illness, high correctional costs, and high recidivism rates. The initiative supports a multi-staged process by which a jurisdiction increases the cost-effectiveness of its criminal justice system and reinvests savings into high-performing strategies to increase public safety.
The solicitation associated with this webinar is accessible online at: https://bja.ojp.gov/funding/opportunities/bja-2020-17093.
