About the Lab
The Early Justice Strategies (EJS) lab conducts research on strategies to facilitate community release, supervision, and connection to services and supports for individuals who are justice-involved. Many of our projects focus specifically on front-end criminal-legal processing (i.e., community-, police-, jail-, and court-based interventions). See the “Projects” tab for more information on our recent work!
