While many researchers study offenders and offending, few actually journey into the correctional world to meet offenders face to face. This book offers researchers, practitioners, and students a step-by-step guide to effectively research correctional populations, providing field-tested advice for those studying youth and adults on probation, on parole, and in jails and prisons.  The book addresses topics such as how to build rapport with offenders and those who monitor them; how to select from the many types of correctional data that can be collected; how to navigate the informed consent process and maintain research ethics; and how to manage the logistics of doing research. With personal stories, “what if” scenarios, case studies, and real-world tools like checklists and sample forms, the authors share methods of negotiating the complexities that researchers often face as they work with those behind bars.

This volume offers a collection of chapters exploring a range of research collaborations within the field of sentencing and corrections, focusing on both process and results. Chapters cover partnerships between people and organizations with different trainings, backgrounds, and/or purposes, such as academics in different fields, practitioners, policymakers, and those with and without lived experience in the justice system, with mental health issues, and/or with substance use disorders. The range of sentencing and corrections agencies includes courts, diversion programs or alternatives to incarceration, community supervision departments, and correctional institutions. Contributions provide valuable insights into the development of such partnerships, highlighting effective strategies, identifying key factors that contribute to successful collaborations, and addressing challenges alongside practical solutions. The sections are organized to focus on critical aspects of collaboration, including the processes of working together in the field, advancing partnerships, achieving desired outcomes, and bridging the gap between academic research and its application by policymakers, practitioners, and the broader public. The volume shines a light on the importance and impact of collaborating across differences in sentencing and corrections and advances best practices for achieving successful partnerships. This is Volume 11 of The ASC Division on Corrections and Sentencing Handbook Series. The handbooks provide in-depth coverage of seminal and topical issues around sentencing and corrections for scholars, students, practitioners, and policymakers.
