Analysis and Research

The Pretrial Justice Institute works to improve the research available on pretrial processes and services. Our efforts encompass working with pretrial programs on data collection, analyzing jail populations, facilitating forums to identify needed research, and serving as a clearinghouse for research reports. We also publish the Pretrial Reporter which covers judicial decisions affecting the pretrial process.

The following sections include our own work as well as a library of good works by others in the field.
