Those individuals tasked with reducing the recidivism of released inmates' will want to pay a visit here. "Drawing on lessons learned from reentry policies, programs, and research, [this forum] aimed to position states to leave the event with the outlines of a plan that had the following elements: set specific goals that include concrete reductions in recidivism; design plans to achieve these goals that draw on the latest research and experiences from the field; and identify benchmarks that states agree are ambitious, yet realistic, that state and federal policy makers can use to track progress towards recidivism reduction.” Videos from the forum are: Pew—reducing recidivism; welcome; the role of the corrections Director in reentry and reducing recidivism; recent national and federal state-by-state trends in recidivism; policies and practices essential to reducing recidivism; panel discussion about setting recidivism reduction goals and realizing those targets; how police executives responded to the challenge from elected officials to reduce crime; and next steps—Working together to reach our goals.
