Bureau of Justice Statistics Presents: Updates on Community Corrections Data Collection Efforts
SESSION INFO
Monday, August 29, 2022
2:15 PM - 3:15 PM
Session Type: Workshop
The Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) will provide updates on their community corrections data collections. BJS will present information from recently released community corrections reports, including Probation and Parole in the United States, 2020. This report presents statistics on adults under community supervision, including trends in the size and characteristics of the overall community supervision population, and statistical trends related to those populations. Presenters will also discuss future changes to the annual probation and parole collection. Additionally, presenters will also describe findings from the COVID-19 supplement from the reference year 2020 survey, including changes in probation and parole populations and to agency procedures and practices due to COVID. Finally, presenters will demonstrate the enhanced Corrections Statistical Analysis Tool (CSAT) – Prisoners. The dashboard replaces and enhances the core functionality of the previous data tool, and for the first time includes data from the National Corrections Reporting Program (NCRP), which allows for more in-depth, state-level analysis of data on persons in state prison by age, sex, race/ethnicity, offense, sentence length, time served in prison, and admission and release types. Through the dashboard, users can select pre-formatted frequently requested charts or generate custom statistics, figures, and maps on prison admissions, prison releases, and year-end prison populations between 1978 and 2019.
