5. Pair research with early wins.
Small, low-cost improvements—better staff training, clearer grievance communication—build trust and show that feedback leads to change.
6. Work beyond the walls.
Reform strengthens when DOCs connect with policymakers and community partners.

3. Identify a project champion.
A trusted staff leader who bridges groups can sustain progress and morale.
4. Use efficient, inclusive research methods.
Short surveys, interviews, and walkabouts reduce burden and encourage participation.

1. Leadership buy-in matters.
Lasting change requires ongoing support from the top and middle levels of management, as well as daily reinforcement from staff who carry reforms forward.
2. Address “us vs. them” dynamics early.

Across five states, PRII partners found that change in prisons depends on relationships, transparency, and follow-through. Engagement must include everyone: commissioners, wardens, line staff, and incarcerated people.

We found that participatory approaches can work in prisons when leadership and staff are engaged, trust is built over time, and both staff and incarcerated people see tangible results from their input.

That’s a win-win. The state gets accountability and revenue. Judges and clerks don’t waste time chasing debtors who can’t pay. Debtors pay their debt and ideally deterred from doing whatever illegal thing they did to incur it.

This project was intended to improve revenue collection processes while also making the criminal legal system more fair while simultaneously reducing waste in use of judicial resources.
Anyway it’s dead now because apparently those goals are worthless.
Gonna go cry now.
