    Council on Criminal Justice Publishes COVID-19 Report

    in COVID-19 Discussion

    The Council on Criminal Justice issued a special report on COVID. The report outlines general recommendations to be carried out by all leaders across the criminal justice system, as well as sector-specific recommendations.


    A summary of the general recommendations is below:


    1. Go beyond CDC guidance to stop exponential growth

    2. Communicate transparently about COVID-19 response plans, policies, and data

    3. Adopt universal masking requirements for all staff and impacted populations when indoors and in close contact with others

    4. Widely and frequently test staff and justice-involved populations for COVID-19 using the most reliable methods available

    5. Limit contact, maximize distance, and reduce density

    6. Allocate resources strategically

    7. Actively engage and consider impacted communities in all decision-making

    Thank you for partnering with us to mobilize your community to join our statewide efforts to stop the spread of COVID-19.
