The Center for Justice Innovation—and our operating programs—are regularly featured in the media. Here is a sampling of the press coverage of our work.
The Center for Court Innovation sponsored a Congressional briefing on June 7, 2010, on the topic of "Innovation in Hard Times: How to Reduce both Crime and Incarceration." Greg Berman questioned a panel of four experts, including New York State Chief Judge Jonathan Lippman, on the topic of reducing crime and incarceration.
This report provides the results of a regular community survey focusing on perceptions of neighborhood quality of life, public safety, and criminal justice agencies in Red Hook, Brooklyn, a geographically and socially isolated neighborhood that is home to the Red Hook Community Justice Center. The findings show many positive changes since previous survey administrations.
In January 2011, the Center for Court Innovation released Daring to Fail, a collection of first-person interviews with leading criminal justice scholars and practitioners.
In July 2010, the Urban Institute organized a forum to explore the lessons to be learned from failed public policies and programs. Trial and Error in Criminal Justice Reform, the Center's book on failure was featured at the event.
The National Center for Juvenile and Family Court Judges magazine features a story by an Arizona judge who has replicated our Passport to Adulthood, a tool that helps judges aid young people aging out of foster care (see p. 22).
Trial & Error in Criminal Justice Reform by Greg Berman and Aubrey Fox won an honorable mention in the 2010 PROSE Awards for Law and Legal Studies. It is the first Urban Institute Press book to ever receive this distinction.
