Missed court appearances are a leading cause of warrants, unnecessary pretrial detention, and racial disparities in arrests. Courts nationwide have implemented innovative approaches to overcome the real (and sometimes surprising) reasons people miss court.
All Rise is pleased to share an upcoming, free webinar from ideas42 and the Data Collaborative for Justice at John Jay College, “Showing Up: Strategies to Increase Court Attendance and Limit Pretrial Detention.” This webinar will feature promising strategies from ideas42’s recently published “National Guide to Improving Court Appearances” and bring the conversation from research to practice with a panel of practitioners from across the country who have made effective strategies a reality—avoiding jail for people facing charges, while delivering accountability, justice, and fairness.
