Causal Research on the Criminal Justice System
A collaborative initiative between the Russell Sage Foundation and Arnold Ventures targeting early-career scholars. The program funds research projects examining causal impacts of the criminal justice system, including policing, courts, jails, prisons, probation, parole, and immigration detention. Applications require rigorous causal research designs (RCTs, difference-in-differences, regression discontinuity, instrumental variables). A two-stage application process is used: Letter of Inquiry followed by invited full proposal.
