Role of a leader within a criminal justice organization


Assignment:

Overview: For this milestone, you will prepare a second draft of your final project that thoroughly addresses the items listed in the prompt.

To complete this assignment, you must complete the textbook reading assigned in Module Seven and review the materials presented in Modules One through Seven. As a criminal justice leader, you will often be faced with making decisions that reflect not only on you but on your department as a whole. We often use tools like statistics and crime trends to offer the best possible route to finding a solution and ultimately making a decision. The field of criminal justice is constantly changing; new laws, policies, and procedures make situational, evidence-based decision making a complicated daily task. And it is nearly impossible to make an informed decision without first researching the issues at play and leveraging the power of available data to determine the right solution for each particular situation and organization.

You will assume the role of a leader within a criminal justice organization of your choice. Based on your chosen scenario, you will be presented with a specific challenge that is emblematic of wider issues in contemporary criminal justice. Prompt: Your task for Milestone Two is to complete the Proposal and Communication Plan sections of your final project. You will be given information (including this data set) for your scenario, but you must also conduct your own research on comparable organizations and trends in the field to determine opportunities and external threats.
