Person Centric Data Modeling Working Group

Sharing of personal information is critical to tie-together a person’s involvement in the criminal/civil justice ecosystem. Additionally, this information is subject to policy constraints, will help the entire criminal/civil justice system assess and focus on outcomes – including reducing re-incarceration rates. This group’s main priority is to create a model that focuses on a person’s involvement across the criminal/civil justice system and illustrates the view of a single person’s multiple episodes of system involvement, across a lifetime.
