Coalition Submits Criminal Justice Recommendations for New Administration

New Publication

Twenty-five organizations collectively amassed a 263-page transition document for the new presidential administration, entitled Smart on Crime: The 2009 Criminal Justice Transition Coalition (PDF). It was released November 5, 2008. The document covers a broad array of criminal justice issues ranging from sentencing reform to victims’ services to juvenile justice. Priorities of the coalition (DOC) are spelled out in an executive summary. An entire chapter is dedicated to issues of prisoner reentry (DOC), which the organizations consider a top-level issue.
