December 2012
Series
A small number of those who commit crimes are heavily involved in drugs commit a large portion of the crime in this country.

The Evaluation of NIJ by the National Research Council of the National Academy of Sciences: NIJ's Response
June 2011
The National Academies conducted a comprehensive evaluation of the National Institute of Justice. This panel provides an overview of the evaluation and NIJ's response to it. NIJ has accepted many of the recommendations in the NRC report, and you will learn what the agency is doing to implement them. A few of the recommendations were challenging and created considerable debate within NIJ. Plans to address these thorny issues also are discussed.
