3-Year Recidivism Rates by Race

The Answer Is Bigger Than Just The DOC

• Truth In Sentencing drives our population rates• Doubled the sentences when written• No release valve, escalating population • Wisconsin has begun evaluating Justice Reform• Working with legislature on sentencing reform• Working with Community Corrections on

revocation protocols.• Instituted Swift & Certain Sanctions• Using Evidence Based Practices and programs in

decision making.• Using risk assessment tools in decision making

rather than subjective personal decisions.
