This analysis reveals effectiveness ratings from CrimeSolutions in criminal justice programs, suggesting implications for policy and practice.
CrimeSolutions is a government-funded resource that provides standardized ratings and summaries of the effectiveness of criminal justice programs and practices based on rigorous evaluations and meta-analyses. It is funded and maintained by the U.S. Department of Justice's Office of Justice Programs, offering evidence-based guidance for policy and practice in corrections, policing, courts, crime prevention, and related topics. At least for now, you can view the material at crimesolutions.ojp.gov <https://crimesolutions.ojp.gov> . In case the website should stop working for any reason, Wheeler scraped it on September 25, 2025, and posted the results on GitHub <https://github.com/apwheele/crime-solutions> . However, that back-up could be intentionally or mistakenly deleted. Therefore, Jacques archived it on Arweave <https://arweave.org/> using ArDrive <https://app.ardrive.io/> . Arweave is a decentralized, blockchain-based storage network designed to offer permanent and censorship-resistant data. Instead of recurring fees, users pay a one-time cost to store data indefinitely. For enhanced visibility and discoverability, we created this page on CrimRxiv. Below is an embedded ZIP-file with the same data available on GitHub and Arweave. We are in the process of putting CrimRxiv as a whole on Arweave.
