Community Justice Center Update

The Chronicle provides a good updated account of how things are going at the Community Justice Center. Among other things, it seems that the attendance rate for drug felony charges is 86%, and for low-level misdemeanors, 22%.

As a comparison, this piece about a probation experiment in Hawaii, and its impact on recidivism reduction, may be of interest.
