Assignment 1: LASA 2: Prisoner Data Analysis

As part of the criminal justice process, corrections play a very important role for society and public policy. You will become familiar with the trends in local, state, and federal prison populations for the period of 2000–2008. If you desire a career in corrections, you will gain knowledge to help you be better prepared when entering into the corrections workplace. If you are not opting corrections as a career, you will still gain a foundational knowledge of the data used to drive policy decisions in this critical criminal justice entity.
You have been selected for the position of deputy director of public safety and corrections for your state. Your first duty is to prepare for your first top-level meeting with department personnel. Using the data from Prisoners in 2008, (Cooper, Sabol, & West, 2009), you will produce a 10-page paper (title page, abstract, 7 pages of content, and a references page) that summarizes the article and explains how this data influences the decision making for the prison population that you will experience in your new role as deputy director of your state’s Department of Public Safety and Corrections.
