Thrilled to be delivering the keynote at the Evidence-Based Policing 2024 conference! More opportunities to share how National Institute of Justice can help support science-minded officers and analysts as we all continue to advance the field of evidence-based policing. #ASEBP2024
A lack of resources across #toxicology labs limits our understanding of issues that affect public safety — ex. this study shows the need for drug-impaired driving tests in DUI cases, given their prevalence.
We’re hiring for another #SocialScientist , this time with expertise in the areas of interpersonal violence and victimization. Check it out here and share with your colleagues!
We updated our Drug Treatment Courts flyer for #TreatmentCourtMonth & All Rise #RISE24 . It outlines research resources supported by Bureau of Justice Assistance, OJP OJJDP, and National Institute of Justice. Please check this out as we work to support and strengthen these critical courts: ojp.gov/pdffiles1/nij/…
Looking forward to joining many familiar faces in #policing for the DC Police Leadership Academy today! Great leaders know the importance of feedback, evaluation, and evidence, and I'm here to represent National Institute of Justice and discuss how we can help. DC Police Leadership Academy
One thing I love about science is that it helps us challenge assumptions and rectify outdated thinking. Here's new National Institute of Justice-supported research that shows us where we've been wrong in beliefs about sex trafficking indicators (and where we may be right): nij.ojp.gov/topics/article…
Forensic investigators and death examiners have faced longstanding issues like understaffing/turnover, funding shortages, and a lack of consistent implementation standards. National Institute of Justice has taken the lead to gather comprehensive facts to ID and address these complex challenges.

Proud to be the 168th follower of National Institute of Corrections - the National Institute of Corrections’ new presence on X.

Can't believe we're almost halfway through 2024! What's one thing you've learned this year that can help researchers better put evidence to action in the field? #ResearcherTips
Our research helped affirm that access to interconnected resources improves school climate & student equity. I revisited this evaluation of the Interconnected Systems Framework as reminder of the intersection of #MentalHealth and #SchoolSafety : nij.ojp.gov/topics/article… #MHAM2024
Enjoyed engaging w/ experts on digital & multimedia forensics yesterday at the Digital Forensics for National Security conference. Delivering remarks on a topic I know little about is a great crash course and helps me refine thoughts on how to best prioritize National Institute of Justice investments
