Risk, Need, Responsivity (RNR) Simulation Tool Project
Note:
This awardee has received supplemental funding. This award detail page includes information about both the original award and supplemental awards.
The George Mason University will enhance a Risk, Need, Responsivity (RNR) Simulation Tool that will assist federal, state and local jurisdictions define the type and nature of correctional options available in their jurisdictions. The RNR Simulation Tool will help jurisdictions assess their current system, identify gaps, and prioritize both services and controls (drug testing, electronic monitoring, etc.) based on desired outcomes. The RNR Simulation Tool will be web-based allowing jurisdictions to modify the parameters of the model based on the unique features of their jurisdictions. The RNR Simulation Tool will complement efforts to advance the use of evidence-based practices by helping jurisdictions strategically review their existing correctional and treatment services and then make choices based on maximizing different outcomes in their jurisdiction.
