What Works in Reentry Clearinghouse
What Works in Reentry Clearinghouse is a “one-stop shop” for research on the effectiveness of a wide variety of reentry programs and practices. It features programs rated by the National Institute of Justice’s CrimeSolutions.gov, a website that presents programs that have undergone rigorous evaluations and meta-analyses. CrimeSolutions.gov assesses the strength of the evidence about whether these programs achieve criminal justice, juvenile justice, or crime victim services outcomes in order to inform practitioners and policy makers about what works, what doesn’t, and what’s promising.
What Works Clearing House
The What Works Clearinghouse (WWC) reviews the existing research on different programs, products, practices, and policies in education. A part of the Institute of Education Sciences, data collected includes literacy, early childhood, k-12, English learners, charter schools, behavior, postsecondary, children with disabilities and more. Their goal is to provide educators with the information they need to make evidence-based decisions, focusing on results from high-quality research to answer the question “What works in education?"
