Restrictive Housing Performance Measures: Real World Application

South Dakota Department of Corrections (SD DOC) began reforming its restrictive housing policies, procedures, and practices in late 2013. In Restrictive Housing Performance Measures: Real World Application the SD DOC, with technical assistance from the Crime and Justice Institute (CJI) funded through the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), collected and reported data from the start not only to demonstrate what was being done, how well, and to what end, but also to help inform modifications to the new restrictive housing program as it was rolled out.
