    A Bicycle Built for Two: The Intersection Between Community Policing and Corrections

    Monday, October 21, 2024
    2:00 PM - 3:30 PM ET
    Location: 258C
    In response to criminal justice reform, the Essex County Sheriff’s Department in Massachusetts has developed a full continuum of services, bolstered by policing partnerships. Supporting Transitions and Reentry (STAR) is a community-based location for justice-involved individuals. STAR works closely with courts, parole, corrections, and local police to divert individuals away from incarceration and to ease the transition back into the community upon release, using evidenced-based and best practice models with a multidisciplinary strategy to reduce crime, arrests, and advance public safety interests. This workshop will highlight the benefits of a continuum model which includes police partnerships to enhance outcomes for justice involved individuals.
