Implementing Innovations in Criminal Justice
Since the inception of the Center in 1981, underlying thinking about the purposes and philosophical bases for justice practice has evolved and changed significantly. Through these changes, the Center has worked with policymakers and practitioners as emerging philosophies and approaches have been considered and implemented. A byproduct of these experiences has been the development of a rich knowledge base about a variety of innovations in justice and their implications for practice. Specific projects in this area of expertise include:
- Court Innovations
