Trends in population-based risk of homicide compare the risks for young children versus older teens and adults, boys versus girls, children of different racial/ethnic groups, and children in different developmental age groups. Patterns in these 31-year trends suggest practical implications for reducing homicide levels among young children. | | | | Date Created: | 11 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003736 Original UID: 3589 FIRST WORD: Research | |

The study explores prisoner reentry across five domains: (1) the individual experience, as documented through interviews with prisoners before and after release from prison; (2) the family experience, as documented through interviews with family members of returning prisoners; (3) the peer group experience, as documented through prisoner interviews both before and after their release; (4) the community experience, as documented through interviews with key community stakeholders and focus groups with residents; and (5) the broader policy environment at the state level. In Illinois, the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, the Woods Fund of Chicago, the Annie E. Casey Foundation, and the Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority supported Returning Home. The Metro Chicago Information Center (MCIC) conducted the original data collection under the expert direction of Dr. Alis Schoua-Glusberg. | | | | Date Created: | 08 30 2005 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003744 Original UID: 3595 FIRST WORD: Returning | |

| 3533: | | Title: | | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | | Description: | The Chicago Womens Health Risk Study (CWHRS) was designed to give nurses, beat officers and other primary support people information they need to know in order to help women who are experiencing violence at the hands of an intimate partner lower the risk of life-threatening injury or death. Previous research did not provide this practical information. The purpose of the CWHRS was to identify factors indicating significant danger of life-threatening injury or death in situations in which an intimate partner is physically abusing a woman. We accomplished this by conducting a study that compared longitudinal data on abused women with similar data on women who had been killed by or who killed her intimate partner. | | | | Date Created: | 09 27 2004 | | | | Agency ID: | | | | | ISL ID: | 000000003748 Original UID: 3599 FIRST WORD: The | |
