- 94% of our nation’s felony offenders are sentenced in state courts
- Research shows incarceration is not an effective crime-control strategy
- We need data-driven sentencing policies that guide the management of offenders to the most effective interventions
- Judges are natural advocates of evidence-based practices and use data as a tool in sentencing
- Effective treatment is essential for many lower-risk offenders
- Barriers within systems are present, but are not outside the influence and control of a judge
We know how to use the research to create effective systems and interventions
