As part of its assessment role, the Urban Institute monitors the progress of local and state Justice Reinvestment sites. Urban does so by collecting and assessing monthly reports on technical assistance to the sites, information on sites' subaward funding, local subaward requests, and letters of interest. Urban reviews materials provided on the sites' progress. In this role, Urban also reaches out to technical assistance providers from the state and local sites and holds semi-structured interviews with site stakeholders.
