WHAT IS JJRRI? A practical but comprehensive approach to reforming the
juvenile justice system using a research-based data-driven
decision-making platform to inform system improvements and
service delivery.
Results:
• Improved outcomes for youth
• Cost effectiveness

WHY JJRRI? Early intervention with youth is less expensive and more
effective.
For youth involved in the juvenile justice system, research
shows that interventions focusing on control (e.g. detention)
are less effective than therapeutic approaches for reducing
recidivism.
The deeper a youth goes into the juvenile justice system the
more likely a youth is to reoffend.

– Reinvestment of cost savings to front end
• Long-term outcomes:
– Decreased recidivism rates and improved outcomes for youth
– Improved cost effectiveness of juvenile justice services, and

SPEP
-The Standardized Program Evaluation Protocol
SPEP is a rating process developed by Mark Lipsey at Vanderbilt
University’s Peabody Research Institute
– Meta-analysis of over 600 intervention studies and growing
– Took research on all evidence-based programs (EBPs) identified to
reduce recidivism
– Identified and analyzed the characteristics of these EBPs programs
– Created profiles of effective programs by program type
SPEP assesses how well current program practice matches the
profile of programs with research evidence for effectiveness
![Page 12: Juvenile Justice Reform and Reinvestment Initiative (JJRRI) · WHY JJRRI? Early intervention with youth is less expensive and more effective. For youth involved in the juvenile justice](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042223/5ec9d85e3123d15ca2181a56/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
SPEP
-The Standardized Program Evaluation Protocol
Ratings Elements Cover Four Key Areas:
• Program or Service Type
• Quality of Service Delivery
• Amount of Service
– Duration
– Intensity of Contact (face-to-face, group, etc)
• Risk Level of Youth Served
![Page 13: Juvenile Justice Reform and Reinvestment Initiative (JJRRI) · WHY JJRRI? Early intervention with youth is less expensive and more effective. For youth involved in the juvenile justice](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042223/5ec9d85e3123d15ca2181a56/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Purpose and Use of SPEP Process
– Classify programs into SPEP Program Types
– Rate/evaluate generic community programs against
the criteria determined effective in EBP’s to reduce
recidivism.
– Determine a SPEP Score
– Identify areas for Program Improvement based on
score
– Re-score overtime to monitor improvements

System Alignment Approach
• Map Service Array
• Risk and Needs Assessment
• Dispositional Matrix—Guidelines and Adherence
• Monitor service selection and ongoing case
management
• Reinvestment to front end outcome-driven community-
based services
• Scale-Up and Sustainability

Dispositional Matrix
A structured decision-making tool for courts on
dispositions for youth which…..
Matches risk levels and offense types to
recommend a supervision level

Following the Dispositional Guidelines
Reduces Recidivism
![Page 19: Juvenile Justice Reform and Reinvestment Initiative (JJRRI) · WHY JJRRI? Early intervention with youth is less expensive and more effective.

Dispositional Matrix
• Matrix is tailored to each jurisdiction
• Guides judicial process but does not replace judicial
discretion.
• Judges make decisions based on individual cases
• Data documents the impact of consistently going
outside of the guidelines and the value of adherence
• Provides feedback on system reform process and
reinvestments
