On June 14th, 2023, the Data Collaborative for Justice was joined by a panel of experts to gain valuable knowledge, perspectives, and actionable strategies as they navigate the complexities of bail reform and chart a path towards an equitable and effective criminal justice system. The webinar included an overview of changes made to New York’s bail statute in May of 2023; a presentation on DCJ’s recent report testing the impact of bail reform on recidivism; and a robust panel discussion. Drawing on a range of credible data, panelists identified promising, data-driven strategies to enhance public safety.
