Survey says what?!?! Results from the Scan of Pretrial Practices

Recorded On: 09/06/2019

Join us for the September First Friday Forum to find out how this 3rd generation of bail reform is taking root in local communities.  The Pretrial Justice Institute (PJI) has conducted a national scan of practices approximately every ten years since 1979. The 2019 Scan of Pretrial Practices surveyed counties – from large and urban to small and rural – about their pretrial justice practices. You’ll be simultaneously encouraged and concerned as we share highlights of this soon-to-be-released report.
