Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 36 / Friday, February 22, 2008 / Notices Prosecutors—Benefits and Hooks: Better judgments individually and programmatically; more confidence in decision making; more information available can leverage service providers to raise capacities; help manage workload; collective accountability: everyone vested in seeing positive outcomes. Prosecutors—Issues and Challenges: Driver is collateral consequences on how cases are handled: e.g., guns, sex offenders, INS/ICE, etc. * * *; there may require more work and faith that there is no manipulation of the process; time constraints; figure out development of plea policies: changing current structure and format. Administration—Benefits and Hooks: Will help with resource management (volume and speed can help with spending more time on risk reduction); system improvement including front end to enhance risk reduction such as preventative services with juvenile and families. Administration—Issues and Challenges: Alignment of all the organizational policies, resources, evaluations * * *; need to realize that EBP is not only for the adult system but has spillover to all components of the criminal justice system. Identifying Strategies for NIC: (Meeting Objective 8) After reviewing the benefits and challenges, participants developed potential strategies to achieve project goals. mstockstill on PROD1PC66 with NOTICES Note: The following list represents a full menu of proposed strategies. Not all of which were adopted in the current Request for Proposals. Strategies to Use EBP to Reduce Risk: Find a pilot site or demonstration sites to make the case for using EBP system-wide; need to be selected for success not failure; need leadership and commitment; need to take risk; all stakeholders should be at the same level of understanding; there should not be conflicting understanding, mixed messages and agendas (consensus amongst the participants); understanding that EBP is dynamic and needs learning environment. Work with the National District Attorneys’ Association and state prosecutors’ associations at their training conferences; put together training packages; train trainers (prosecutors) at the various conferences with intent that demand for such training will spread to local jurisdictions; need to show results to convince prosecutors that this is in their best interest. National Conference of State Legislatures’ conference and other key VerDate Aug<31>2005 16:38 Feb 21, 2008 Jkt 214001 national conferences, e.g., the Conference of State Chief Justices; work with pretrial services and court administrators networks and associations; develop linkages to judges’ associations for information sharing and raising awareness and interest. Develop road show and information packets that can be done whenever the opportunities arise and need to carefully define public safety in terms of offender behavior change or reduction of risk to re offend. Funding by NIC of a major process and outcome evaluation so eventually a compelling case can be made. Does EBP decision making save money and achieve better outcomes? Target local public safety/criminal justice coordinating counsels to function as organizational models to introduce EBP. Include governors, (National Governor’s Association), Public Defender Association, American Bar Association. Develop a framework for integrating and implementing EBP—a criminal justice systems approach. The framework paper would define the mission, goals and approach; identify the issues that need to be addressed from the perspective of different stakeholders; define terms; define roles of stakeholders, and so forth. EBP helps frame what to do; the principles of EBP will need to relate to the operational level (all the players need to know what to do and what it would look like for them). Articulate the vision and core message of the project (something to rally behind). Have outside experts come to local jurisdictions to do an analysis (not an evaluation) of the local system. (Don’t start with locations that are dysfunctional.) Build a national consensus on EBP and sentencing. National symposium. Co-sponsorship by PEW, NIJ, NIC, JEHT * * * et al, to build sense of excitement and momentum, tying to reentry and jail overcrowding (target real issues and concerns that need new and effective direction). Provide opportunities to individuals and jurisdictions that have not had exposure to EBP and case decision making or collective policymaking. ‘‘Even just discussions can lead to positive change * * *’’. Develop core principles for systems change. Insist that everything is done as a team modeling the continuum of EBP. Tying this initiative to Re-entry: starts at charging and providing offenders a way to successfully re-enter society. PO 00000 Frm 00077 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 9833 Prioritize the work with pretrial and corrections/probation agencies. These are the agencies that have the data and can operationalize and demonstrate how things work. These agencies can act as system pioneers. Judges can use the information and bring along other key players such as prosecutors. Give judges concrete data on effective interventions and practices. Provide structure for judges to use data on individual offender. Needs to be national salesperson for each of the system components who can market and teach practitioners about EBP and decision making. Dated: February 14, 2008. Thomas J.
