Mapping Community Data on Children of Prisoners: Strategies and Insights
The Urban Institute (2008)
This policy brief discusses the analysis and mapping of local data on children whose parents are involved in the criminal justice system. The brief begins by highlighting the value of such efforts and then outlines potential data sources and methods for analyzing and mapping information on this population. The report is based on input from the Reentry Mapping Network (RMN) sites about their efforts to map and understand parental incarceration in their communities.
