General Purpose
This is a two-year project cooperative agreement award. The general purpose of this project is to develop and facilitate a process evaluation for identified State Department of Corrections (DOC) agencies and their current halfway house decision-making processes. Review, assess and report those findings of the evaluation. The central aim is to identify precise operational mechanisms and understand various factors that influence these critical determinations.

The first year will focus on the development, collection and analysis of the data while year two will focus on working with subject matter experts to develop national recommendations based on the collected data, to enhance utilization of halfway houses. The diagnostic approach ensures that observed discrepancies between intended goals and actual results can be used to improve upon that decision-making point in state departments of corrections.
