Brennan Center for Justice

<div>
 The Brennan Center for Justice at NYU School of Law is a nonpartisan law and policy institute that seeks to improve the systems of democracy and justice in the United States. We work to hold our political institutions and laws accountable to the twin American ideals of democracy and equal justice for all. The Brennan Center&rsquo;s work ranges from voting rights to campaign finance reform, from ending mass incarceration to preserving Constitutional protections in national security policies. Part think-tank, part advocacy group, part cutting edge communications hub, we start with rigorous research. We craft innovative policies. And we fight for them &ndash; in Congress and the states, in the courts, and in the court of public opinion.
 
 
 The Brennan Center&rsquo;s Justice Program aims to secure our nation&rsquo;s promise of &ldquo;equal justice for all&rdquo; by tackling racial disparities and economic injustice, promoting a dignity-centered approach to crime and punishment, and creating a rational, effective, and fair justice system. Its priority focus is to reform the criminal legal system to shrink reliance on mass incarceration and mitigate its pernicious effects.
 
 
 
 Position Overview:
 
 
 
 The Justice Program is seeking Research Analyst to join a cutting-edge interdisciplinary team working to create a fair and equitable criminal justice system that champions evidence-based reforms to protect both individual rights and public safety. The Research Analyst will conduct research and engage in policy advocacy for Justice Program initiatives, working with attorneys, associates, and other researchers. Some projects in the near term include: a mixed methods study examining a state prison system and current reforms being implemented there; a study to evaluate the impact of clean slate laws in New York and other jurisdictions around the country; and a quantitative study examining the relationship between harsh prison conditions and recidivism.
 
 
 Reporting to the Senior Research Fellow, the Research Analyst will conduct and help shape quantitative and qualitative research for Justice Program projects; engage in the writing and editing of reports that present data findings; engage with external organizations to advance research efforts; and participate in the release of reports by organizing events and reporting back to stakeholders.
