Across the nation, the National Guard was called up more than 200 times last year, responding to fires, storms, floods and hurricanes. Units were credited with rescuing more than 3,000 people. At home, we have responded to snow storms, floods, fires, and we are one of the firsts to be called upon when disaster strikes. I am proud of what we have done in the past to support our state. We must continue to prepare so that we are ready when we are called upon by the governor. Preparedness is the shared responsibility of our entire state. Preparing ourselves and our families for disasters and emergencies ensures the strength of our communities and it strengthens our ability to safeguard our state and our nation. Photo by Sgt.

We are comprised of a network of researchers and practitioners throughout government, academia, and the justice community. At the core of this network are state Statistical Analysis Centers (SACs), which are units or agencies at the state level that use information from all components of the criminal justice system to conduct objective analyses informing policy and practice at the state and local levels. While most SACs are housed within their State Administering Agency (SAA), the location of SAAs varies from state to state. Of the SACs located outside of government agencies, all but one are located within academic institutions. The remaining SAC is a registered non-profit public benefit corporation. 1 Justice Research and Statistics Association SAC Publication Digest Vol. XXXII SAC Publication Digest – Volume XXXII The SAC Publication Digest is a comprehensive collection of abstracts of state Statistical Analysis Center (SAC) reports, including reports produced for the SACs by outside authors or organizations.

The Digest is a resource for anyone concerned with understanding the current major justice issues as well as the administration of justice in the states.
