CEBCP Mission
The Center for Evidence-Based Crime Policy seeks to make scientific
research central in decisions about crime and justice policies by
advancing rigorous studies in criminal justice and criminology and
proactively serving as an informational link to practitioners
and the policy community.
Research Excellence
CEBCP engages in a wide variety of projects, including primary research on criminological and criminal justice issues as well as evaluation of interventions for outcome effectiveness. Of special interest to the center are:
-
a place-based focus on explaining crime and developing criminal
justice interventions;
-
using rigorous methods (especially experimentation) to evaluate
and assess crime prevention interventions in the areas of
policing and corrections; and
- actively seeking out avenues to disseminate information to the public, practitioners, and policy community.
