Part Time Research Assistant Position

Measures for Justice (MFJ) and the Michigan Indigent Defense Commission (MIDC) have partnered to implement an innovative project devising a web tool that will allow the public to access and visualize criminal justice performance data to continually shed the light on the entire system from arrest to post-conviction.  MFJ measures will help inform criminal justice reform and policy-making.  The web tool will launch in June 2016 with county-level data from six pilot states. MFJ’s goal is to have data from at least 20 states by 2020.  MFJ is looking to hire a part-time Research Assistant to conduct a census of the criminal justice data infrastructure in Michigan. This census will help inform the development of a data collection strategy in the state.  Read more about this position and the application process here.
