The Institute on Race and Justice at Northeastern University
The Institute on Race and Justice has strived to fulfill its mission of utilizing strategic social science research methodologies and community, practitioner, and government collaboration to assist in the development of policy changes that advance the cause of social justice. The Institute's affiliated faculty members help broaden the scope of interdisciplinary race and justice scholarship around the Northeastern campus. The Institute is also incredibly grateful for its internal and external sponsors, who provide the support necessary to help the Institute achieve its race and justice research goals.
The Urban Institute was established in 1968 to promote sound social policy and public debate on national priorities. The Institute's 10 policy centers carry out independent, nonpartisan research, gather and analyze data, evaluate programs and services, and educate policymakers and the public on critical issues and trends. The Justice Policy Center (JPC) studies crime, justice, and community safety. JPC researchers collaborate with practitioners, public officials, and community groups to make the Center's research useful to decision makers and agencies in the justice system, and also to the neighborhoods and communities harmed by crime and disorder.
Bureau of Justice Statistics
the United States' primary source for criminal justice statistics
BJS' mission is to collect, analyze, publish, and disseminate information on crime, criminal offenders, victims of crime, and the operation of justice systems at all levels of government. These data are critical to Federal, State, and local policymakers in combating crime and ensuring that justice is both efficient and evenhanded.
