ANNUAL REPORT 2013

2013 ANNUAL REPORT | 1 Dear Friends,

At The Sentencing Project we view our work on justice reform as having three components – research, public education, and advocacy. During 2013 I believe we made substantial progress in all these areas, and contributed to the changing national climate for reform.

Our research documented both disturbing trends and signs of hope. Our analysis of life imprisonment uncovered the striking fact that one of every nine people in prison is serving such a sentence. We also identified an intriguing shift in the racial dynamics of incarceration, particularly among women, noting that the black/white disparity ratio had been cut in half in the first decade of this century. And we found that there is a The Sentencing Project works for a fair and continuing trend of states closing prisons, with 17 doing so over the past three years. Each of these policy effective U.S. justice system by promoting reports received national press coverage and helped to launch a dialogue around the factors contributing to reforms in sentencing policy, addressing these developments. unjust racial disparities and practices, and Our public education work is ongoing, and takes place both at a national and a local level. We’re quite proud advocating for alternatives to incarceration. that our policy analyses and commentary are regularly featured in national media and editorial commentary. But we also place great value in working with policymakers and advocates around the country, as well as The image on pages 16 and 17 is a photograph delivering conference and workshop presentations to a wide variety of audiences each year. by Richard X.

Our policy advocacy this year was rewarding, and demonstrated once again the need to “stay the course.” Policy change in criminal justice and juvenile justice does not happen overnight, and needs to be built on a Copyright © 2014 by The Sentencing Project. foundation of long-term education. At the federal level, we and our many allies were able to pave the way for introduction of the Smarter Sentencing Act, legislation that would make substantial reductions in the excessive Reproduction of this document in full or in length of mandatory drug penalties. In Oregon, our collaboration with a state senator over five years led to part, and in print or electronic format, only by that state becoming the third in the nation to adopt racial impact statement legislation designed to project permission of The Sentencing Project. any disparate effects of proposed sentencing policy. And in Delaware and Virginia, we saw longstanding campaigns successfully increase access to the ballot for people with previous felony convictions.

These successes are encouraging, but of course we still have a long way to go in shifting public policy to a more balanced and constructive approach to dealing with crime and justice. We appreciate the support of our many colleagues and friends in these endeavors, and are confident that we will see more progress in the year ahead.
