Our program was recently featured in Miami by the Center for Court Innovation (contacts - Julius Lang and Rebecca Thomford Hauser) as one of 10 criminal justice innovation projects worth replicating nationwide. Operational for 4 years, we are currently having internal conversations about the level and delivery of accountability for our chosen repeat felony domestic violence offender population. Denise O'Donnell spoke in Miami about the HOPE probation program, led by Judge Alm, out of Hawaii. This is the type of supervision we're doing, with our judges and defense counsel asking many questions. Judge Alm's input and experience would appear likely very helpful to us.
