From the Ground Up: Promising criminal justice projects in the US and the UK (November 2011)
This report examines successful demonstration projects in the UK and the US that are attempting to reduce crime, drug use and incarceration, among other challenging goals. The report identifies a selection of innovative, groundlevel experiments in policing, probation, courts and crime prevention that have had a real impact.
In this report the founders and lead practitioners share their experiences of creating innovative projects and in reviewing the projects the author identifies key practical lessons for how to successfully plan, implement and sustain new criminal justice endeavours.
