Our Mission
The Criminal Justice Expert Panel is composed of leading academic social scientists who are regularly surveyed about what will work best to improve the fairness and effectiveness of the criminal justice system. Panelists hail from a variety of disciplines; what they have in common is their expertise in measuring the real-world effects of policies and programs on the outcomes that matter most. Our goal is to bring you their knowledge in a way that is timely, clear, and policy-relevant.
