SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Overview: The overall goal of the 

EBDM Initiative is to establish and test 

articulated linkages (information tools 

and protocols) between local criminal 

justice decisions and the application of 

human and organizational change 

principles (evidence-based practices) to 

achieve measurable reduction of pretrial 

misconduct and post-conviction risk or 

re-offending. The unique focus of the 

initiative is the locally developed 

strategies of criminal justice officials 

that guide practice within existing 

sentencing statutes and rules. The 

initiative intends to: (1) improve the 

quality of information that leads to 

making individual case decisions in 

local systems; and (2) engage these 

systems as policy making bodies to 

collectively improve the effectiveness 

and capacity of the decision process 

related to pretrial release/sentencing 

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

options. Local officials include judges, 

prosecutors, public defenders, police, 

human service providers, county 

executives, and jail, probation and 

pretrial services agencies’ 

administrators. 

Local criminal justice decisions are 

defined broadly to include dispositions 

regarding to arrest, cite and release or to 

custody; pretrial release or detention 

and setting of bail and pretrial release 

conditions; pretrial diversion; charging 

and plea bargaining; sentencing of 

adjudicated offenders regarding use of 

community and custody options; and 

responses to violations of conditions of 

pretrial release and community 

sentences. 

Background: In June 2008, the 

National Institute of Corrections (NIC) 

launched a multiple phase initiative and 

awarded a cooperative agreement to 

address ‘‘Evidence-Based Decision 

Making in Local Criminal Justice 

Systems.’’ The goal of Phase I of the 

initiative was to build a system wide 

framework (arrest through final 

disposition and discharge) that will 

result in more collaborative, evidencebased decisionmaking and practices in 

local criminal justice systems. This 

effort is grounded in two decades of 

research on the factors that contribute to 

criminal reoffending and the methods 

the justice system can employ to 

interrupt the cycle of re-offense. The 

initiative seeks to equip criminal justice 

policymakers in local communities with 

the information, processes, and tools 

that will result in measurable reductions 

of pretrial misconduct and postconviction reoffending. 

The principle product of Phase I of 

this initiative was the Evidence-Based 

Decision Making Framework in Local 

Criminal Justice Systems. The 

Framework identifies the key structural 

elements of a system informed by 

evidence-based practice. It defines a 

vision of safer communities. It puts 

forward the belief that risk and harm 

reduction are fundamental goals of the 

justice system, and that these can be 

achieved without sacrificing offender 

accountability or other important justice 

system outcomes. 

The Framework both acknowledged 

the importance of the key premises and 

values underlying our criminal justice 

system and provides a set of principles 

to guide evidence-based decisionmaking 

within that context. The principles 

themselves are evidence-based. The 

Framework also highlights some of the 

most groundbreaking research that 

demonstrates that pretrial misconduct 

and offender recidivism can be reduced. 

It identifies the key stakeholders who 

must be actively engaged in a 

collaborative partnership if an evidencebased system of justice is to be 

achieved. It outlines some of the most 

difficult challenges agencies face as they 

seek to deliberately and systematically 

implement such an approach in their 

local communities. A copy of the 

Evidence-Based Decision Making 

Framework document can be 

downloaded online at http://www.cepp.

com/ebdm. 

In August 2010, NIC launched Phase 

II (Planning and Engagement Stage) of 

the Evidence-Based Decision Making in 

Local Criminal Justice Systems Initiative 

by selecting seven jurisdictions to serve 

as EBDM ‘‘Seed Sites.’’ Those sites are: 

Mesa County, Colorado; Grant County, 

Indiana; Ramsey County, Minnesota; 

Yamhill County, Oregon; City of 

Charlottesville/County of Albemarle, 

Virginia; Eau Claire County, Wisconsin; 

Milwaukee County, Wisconsin. 

The cooperative agreement awardees 

of Phase II provided intensive technical 

assistance to each of the 7 seed sites for 

a period of 10 months. The overarching 

purpose of the technical assistance was 

to: (1) Develop a shared philosophy and 

vision for the local criminal justice 

system; (2) Determine the capacity to 

collect and analyze date, including the 

quality of the date, to support ongoing 

analysis of the effectiveness of current 

and future policies, practices, and 

services designed to achieve specific 

risk and harm reduction outcomes; and 

(3) Change in knowledge, skills, and 

abilities regarding research-based risk 

reduction strategies. 

Each site was provided technical 

assistance that was specific to the 

initiative and that was individualized to 

their system’s needs. Monthly site visits 

from an assigned Technical Assistance 

Site Coordinator lead the jurisdictions 

through the attainment of specific 

activities and goals. The Roadmap to 

Phase II outlines the major objectives 

that the technical assistance providers 

guided the seeds sites to achieve. The 

technical assistance is intended to lead 

to the following outcomes: Build a 

genuine, collaborative policy team; 

Build individual agencies that are 

collaborative and in a state of readiness 

for change; Understand current practice 

within each agency/across the system; 

Understand and have the capacity to 

implement evidence-based practices; 

Establish performance measurements/ 

outcomes/system scorecard; Develop 

system logic model; Engage/gain 

support of the community; Develop 

Strategic Action Plan. 

Phase II is designed to be completed 

by September 2011. Each jurisdiction 

submitted an application for acceptance 

into Phase III of the initiative. Within 

their applications are a detailed strategic 

action plan and their system’s logic 

model. The action plan and logic model 

will be the foundation of 

implementation activities of the Phase 

III technical assistance. Numerous 

factors regarding the sites performance 

were evaluated and reviewed by a panel 

to make the recommendations of which 

jurisdictions are best positioned to 

implement their action plans to reach 

their harm reduction goals. 

Although there will only be three 

jurisdictions selected to move to Phase 

III, Tier I of the EBDM initiative, 

receiving the most intensive technical 

assistance, NIC is interested in 

continuing to provide technical 

assistance and training to assist the 

remaining four Tier II jurisdictions 

toward the implementation of their 

action plan and system logic model. 

Scope of Work: There are two (2) 

project tasks and deliverables required 

under this this cooperative agreement: 

(1) Technical Assistance will be 

provided to four Tier II EBDM seed 

sites: Grant County, IN; Yamhill County, 

OR; Charlottesville, VA; and Ramsey 

County, MN. As Tier II sites, their 

technical assistance is expected to be 

limited in comparison to the Tier I sites. 

The technical assistance will be guided 

by the ‘‘Roadmap to Phase II’’, each 

site’s strategic action plan and logic 

model, and other specialized assistance 

required to reach the jurisdiction’s 

identified outcomes. 

(2) Subject to the availability of funds, 

work with NIC project manager to 

provide technical assistance and 

guidance to non-EBDM sites that submit 

requests for assistance in implementing 

the EBDM framework within their 

criminal justice system.

In accordance with Section 223 of the 

Trade Act of 1974, as amended (‘‘Act’’), 

19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor 

issued a Certification of Eligibility to 

Apply for Worker Adjustment

At the request of the Tennessee State
