Current through Register Vol. 63, No. 9, September 1, 2024

(1) The Commission may choose one or more Justice Reinvestment grants for a randomized controlled trial or other evaluation. Counties selected for a randomized controlled trial or other evaluation shall partner with the Commission in order to successfully complete the evaluation of their program.

(2) Up to three percent of the total amount of Justice Reinvestment Grant funds may be used to support randomized controlled trials or evaluations for grant awards selected for such evaluations. Subject to approval by the Commission, the funds may also be used to offset any increased costs to the county associated with undergoing a randomized controlled trial or other evaluation.

(3) A county selected for a randomized controlled trial or other evaluation shall contract with the Commission, or an entity approved by the Commission, to conduct such randomized controlled trial or other evaluation.

(4) Any randomized controlled trial or other evaluation funds not allocated or budgeted by July 1 of an even-numbered year shall be dispersed back to the counties participating in the Justice Reinvestment Grant Program according to the formula provided in ORS 423.483.

(5) A program selected for randomized controlled trial or other evaluation shall have preference to be funded in future grant application cycles so long as study participants are still in the program.

(6) The Commission will report the results of evaluations conducted under this rule to a committee of the Legislative Assembly related to the judiciary and the Office of the Governor, and will post the report on the Commission's website.

(7) In choosing programs for randomized controlled trials or other evaluations, the Commission will consider the following factors:

(a) The proposed program is promising and has the capability of being reproduced in other counties.

(b) The proposed program is capable of being evaluated through randomized controlled trials when taking into account sample size and other practical requirements.

(c) The proposed randomized controlled trial will meet the requirements of the institutional review board process.

(d) Studying the program will benefit the State and more broadly the field of criminal justice by adding to the body of knowledge currently available.
