A Closer Look: Issues of Violence, Incarceration & Reentry in Richmond, CA – A Criminal Justice/Reentry Brief

To advance collective understanding and advance opportunities for reform, we researched and wrote this monograph, which studies the arrest, incarceration, and release patterns in the city and region.
